Sriracha Honey Popcorn - the combination of sweet and spicy is addictive!

 

If you had to choose a favorite snack, what would you choose?   Nuts?  Fruit?  Cookies?  Chips and salsa?  The options for snacking are endless.  My hands down favorite?  Popcorn.  I could live on popcorn.  I could eat it every single day and never grow tired of it.  I love it fresh, hot, buttered, air popped, oil popped, salted, stale, every which way.  When my husband goes out of town, I usually have it for dinner!

So, when I received my pre-ordered Infuse: Oil, Spirit, Water by Eric Prum & Josh Williams (which I will be reviewing later!), I immediately marked this Sriracha Honey Popcorn to try.  I’m not sure what you’re really infusing here – unless it’s the butter with sriracha and honey, but I’m so glad they included it!  If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen my photo from a couple of Saturdays ago, where I was testing this and Strawberry Mint Mojitos.   Let’s just say that both were a roaring success.

We were going out to dinner that night because my daughter was coming in town, so we didn’t finish the whole bowl.  My daughter ate some when she came into town and then the next night asked me to make it again.  It’s that good.  I tweaked the recipe just a little.  It called for 4 tablespoons of butter with 1/4 cup of popcorn kernels, my usual formula is 2 tablespoons of butter to 1/2 cup of popcorn kernels.  I also upped the Sriracha sauce a bit from 1 teaspoon to 2 because we like things a little spicy around here.

Another favorite popcorn recipe:  Cookies and Cream Popcorn.
