Geddes Farms has turned a traditionally sweet condiment, into an ultra-spicy spread by infusing it with one of the hottest peppers on earth. While not for the faint of heart, this fiery honey variety will certainly add a kick to your favorite recipes.

The sweet condiment is made from 100 percent raw wildflower honey, which has been infused with ghost peppers. The result is a [sweet and spicy spread](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-chili-jam) that delivers an undeniably distinct flavor. While this spread certainly has a kick to it, the honey does help to subdue the heat of the pepper. Geddes Farms suggests using the zesty honey as a glaze for your favorite meats, smothered on top of wings or even drizzled over [sharp cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-honey-goat-milk-cheese).

Although [ghost pepper honey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-burrito) may not be for everyone, it is the perfect condiment for spicy food lovers everywhere.
