Sleeping Bear Farms' Kirk's Hot Honey

Tastemaker

Whether you know Kirk and Sharon Jones from their sweet libations at St. Ambrose Cellars or their even sweeter creations at Sleeping Bear Farms, one thing is for certain: This couple does honey right. From mead to mustard and everything in between, their honey-infused products are a must for the pantry or fridge. Our favorite? Kirk’s Hot Honey ($12). The ingredients are simple—just star thistle honey mixed with habanero, aleppo, and birdseye chili peppers—and the flavor is out of this world. The spice level is just right to add a fun kick to marinades, to top off pizzas, or to showcase on a charcuterie board. We got ours at the little honey hut on the St. Ambrose campus (841 S Pioneer Rd. in Beulah) but you can also find it in certain grocery stores or online at sleepingbearfarms.com.
