Instructions

In a small saucepan, stir together the honey and chiles. Set over medium heat until it comes to a light boil.

Reduce the heat to low and let it gently simmer for at least 45 minutes and up to 1 hour, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

Remove from heat, and strain into a jar, discarding the leftover chiles. Stir the bourbon into the honey. Let it cool before sealing. Store it in the fridge up to 3 months.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Infusion Magic 🍯
Slowly simmer bourbon and honey together to create a deeper, more complex flavor profile that allows the alcohol's subtle notes to meld with the honey's sweetness.
Spice Control 🌶️
Add red pepper flakes or cayenne in small increments to achieve the perfect balance of heat without overwhelming the bourbon's nuanced flavor.
Ingredient Quality 🥃
Choose a mid-range bourbon with smooth caramel and vanilla notes to create a more sophisticated hot honey that elevates any dish.
Storage Secrets 🧊
Store your bourbon hot honey in a sealed glass jar in the refrigerator, where it can last up to 2 months while maintaining its vibrant flavor profile.
Viscosity Control 💧
Adjust the honey's thickness by gently heating and reducing the mixture, allowing it to naturally thicken without adding cornstarch or other stabilizers.
