Learn practical ways to use the 12oz Bottle (2ct) of Mike's Hot Honey in daily meals, from drizzling on pizza to mixing into dressings and marinades.
Quick answer
Use the 12oz Bottle (2ct) of Mike's Hot Honey as a versatile sweet-heat condiment for drizzling on pizza, chicken, BBQ, cheese boards, cocktails, dressings, marinades, and even ice cream.
Why the 12oz Bottle (2ct) works for everyday cooking
The two-pack gives you a backup bottle so you always have hot honey on hand when a recipe calls for a drizzle. Each 12 oz squeeze bottle has a flip-top cap that makes it easy to control the flow, whether you're adding a few drops to a marinade or a generous swirl over roasted vegetables.
Because it's made with 100% pure honey and real chili peppers, it brings both sweetness and heat without any artificial ingredients. That makes it a clean-label choice for weeknight meals and special dishes alike.
How to use the 12oz Bottle (2ct) in everyday cooking
- Drizzle on pizza and flatbreads: After baking, squeeze a light zigzag over the top. The heat cuts through rich cheese and the honey adds a glossy finish. Don't drizzle before baking—high heat can burn the honey and make it bitter.
- Glaze chicken or pork during the last 5 minutes of cooking: Brush a thin layer onto grilled or roasted meat just before it's done. The sugars caramelize quickly, creating a sticky, spicy crust. Apply too early and the honey can scorch. Wait until the meat is nearly finished.
- Mix into vinaigrettes and marinades: Combine 1 part hot honey with 2 parts vinegar and 3 parts oil. Shake well. Use as a salad dressing or a marinade for chicken or shrimp. Start with less honey than you think—the heat builds. You can always add more.
- Swirl into cocktails or iced tea: Add 1-2 teaspoons to a glass of iced tea, lemonade, or a whiskey sour. Stir until dissolved. The honey is thick; stir thoroughly or it will sink to the bottom.
- Finish roasted vegetables or cheese boards: Drizzle over roasted carrots, Brussels sprouts, or a wedge of brie just before serving. The heat complements earthy flavors. Use a light hand—too much can overpower the vegetable or cheese.
