Notes
This is a winner. Ideal for folks who like a healthy amount of spice but enjoy tangy and sweet. However, if your audience finds sriracha on the hot side, dial back the amount to 1/8 cup and add more honey.
Disclaimer: Do not leave the Lime Juice out! Without the lime juice, it just doesn’t taste the same. Too sweet.
