Place the honey, apple cider vinegar, and crushed red pepper in a small pot over very low heat.
Warm the ingredients together, stirring, until small bubbles begin to appear around the edges of the pot.
Turn off the heat and allow the hot honey to cool, tasting frequently to gauge the level of heat.
When the honey has reached the desired spice level, pour it through a fine mesh strainer into a heat-safe, lidded vessel.

Straining out the pepper flakes stops the heat from building. Store in an airtight jar at room temperature for up to 3 months.
