Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
resting time 10 minutes
Total Time 18 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp dried chili flakes
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

You can use any dried chilis you like and you can also drop down to 1 tbsp to lessen the heat.

Instructions
 

  • Add the honey and chili flakes to a small pot or pan over medium heat.
  • Gently heat the honey until you see small bubbles forming along the edges of the pan, then remove the pan from the heat.
  • Let the honey infuse for 10 minutes. Or longer the longer it infuses the hotter the honey will be.
  • Stir in the apple cider vinegar.
  • Strain the honey through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean glass jar.
  • Stor in an ait-tight jar in a cool dark place.
  • Make sure that you do not let the honey come to a full boil, as it will quickly bubble up and boil over the side of your pot. Also, honey will quickly become too thick and sticky if you let it boil for even a short while. 
  • If you choose not to strain the honey, it will continue to get hotter over time.
