Hot Honey Drizzle
Hot honey drizzle is an easy 15-minute recipe that’s the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and acidic. This versatile condiment is perfect for drizzling on chicken, pork, pizza, roasted vegetables, biscuits, or served with a cheese plate.
I’ve been curious about hot honey for a long time so I finally decided to give it a try. Store-bought versions are super expensive so I just made a homemade version from a recipe I found on Sweet Cayenne. I planned on serving this tasty hot honey drizzle with crispy baked chicken (recipe to follow) but after trying it and realizing how amazing it is, I plan on using it with many different things.
