Notes
If the honey starts to rapidly boil, turn down the heat.
Because the honey is so thick, you may need to take a spoon and push down on the red pepper flakes in the fine mesh strainer to push all the honey through.
The longer you allow the honey mixture to infuse at room temperature, the spicier it will get.
