Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh jalapeños, sliced into rings
- 1 cup honey

Instructions
- Start by preparing your jalapeños. Wash them thoroughly, then slice them into rings.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the honey, distilled white vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the mixture comes to a gentle simmer.
