For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze while simmering. If you don't have bourbon on hand, you can substitute with whiskey or rum, though the flavor profile will change slightly. The glaze can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before using.

02
Step
5 mins
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. (5 minutes)

23 mins
Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently, stirring frequently, until the glaze thickens and becomes syrupy, about 20-25 minutes. The glaze should coat the back of a spoon.
04
Step
10 mins
Remove from heat and let cool slightly. The glaze will thicken further as it cools. (10 minutes)
