The hot honey trend moves beyond pizza to spice up more dishes and drinks across the menu
As flavor trends go, they don’t get much hotter than hot honey, the sticky-sweet sizzler that has migrated from the pizza segment to become the “it” flavor of the moment.
Hot honey boasts an international backstory, in which a young American studying in Brazil becomes enamored with jars of honey that contain embedded chiles. Like liquid amber, they appear atop tables at pizzerias throughout the country and provide the inspiration for what eventually becomes Mike’s Hot Honey, the king of the category.
