Mike’s Hot Honey Is Getting Into the Syrup Game

Mike’s Hot Honey has already come for our Taco Bell condiments, our potato chips, and our AriZonas. Michael Hot Honey isn’t stopping at canned green tea, though; he wants to be in all your drinks. I recently got an email announcing the launch of Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup, intended as a simple syrup substitute with heat. This is an unexpected step for the brand… or is it? Honey and syrup both fit into that awkward “almost a condiment” category, so this might be a natural extension. Let’s find out exactly what’s going on here.

What’s in Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup?

Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup has a very complicated recipe… It’s Mike’s Hot Honey mixed with water at a 1-to-1 ratio – seriously! Mike’s Hot Honey has tons of recipes online that refer to Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup made with that one-step process. Per the list of recipes, Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup has countless uses: lattes, cocktails, slushies, and more. It sounds like there was significant demand for a shelf-stable packaged version of this sweet-and-spicy simple syrup for use in bars and restaurants – and who is Mike’s to decline that extra business?

Where can I get Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup?

Mike’s Hot Honey Syrup is available now in 6-count cases through Mike’s existing wholesale networks and single bottles through the internet! Industry-side customers will want to reach out to whoever handles their existing Mike’s Hot Honey needs, while us home mixologists can head straight to the Mike’s Hot Honey webstore. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a broader retail release in the future – but will it be in the coffee aisle or with the mixers?

Is there any facet of food Mike’s Hot Honey won’t invade?

After a little research, I can confirm: no. A recent Mike’s Hot Honey/HelloFresh promotional box really opened my eyes to how many ways you can ingest Mike’s premiere export: Tillamook jerky, Utz potato chips, Bush’s Grillin’ Beans, Blue Diamond Almonds, and more. Hell, Mike’s Hot Honey did a collaboration with Coldstone Creamery last year. There is no food frontier safe from Mike’s Hot Honey.
