The smoky flavor of whiskey and the spiciness of Sriracha sauce have long been a favorite flavor pairing, but this caramel sauce recipe from the Olives for Dinner blog adds a sweet element to the sauce.
In the recipe, Jack Daniel's Whiskey was specifically selected for its sweetness, tangy flavor and how well it pairs with the Ninja Squirrel Sriracha Hot Sauce. The sauce also gets a hint of sweetness from ingredients like brown sugar and coconut milk to bring out the creamy caramel flavors.
This spicy whiskey-infused caramel sauce recipe makes the perfect topping for snacks and desserts like popcorn, ice cream, toast, donuts and fried bananas. As well as likely making a great marinade or glaze for meat-based dishes, Olives for Dinner also suggests it makes a "surprisingly good" addition to coffee.
