The “hot honey” trend has officially made it to the world of butter! Here, the fat of olive oil and butter coat the palate together to deliver the smooth, flavorful heat of Cholula® Original Hot Sauce, balanced by a kiss of sweetness from honey. Tempting enough to sample by the spoonful, this butter is best enjoyed spread onto warm cornbread or melted over steamed veggies.
