FAQ’s: Storing, Alternatives, & Substitutions
The spice level depends on how much sriracha you use. Start with a small amount and gradually add more to reach your preferred heat level.
Yes, you can swap out sriracha for other hot sauces if you prefer a different flavor profile, but the sweetness of honey will balance best with hot sauces that have a similar tangy, garlicky base.
Store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks, or in the refrigerator if you plan to keep it longer.
Hot honey is versatile and can be drizzled over pizza, fried chicken, roasted vegetables, or even mixed into salad dressings and marinades for a sweet and spicy kick. It’s also great for dipping foods like fries or wings.
