Combine the clover honey and dried red chili flakes in a small stainless steel saucepan over medium-low heat.
Monitor the temperature closely until small bubbles begin to form around the perimeter of the pan, ensuring the honey does not reach a rolling boil to avoid caramelization.
Remove the saucepan from the heat source immediately once the infusion temperature is reached.
Allow the honey to steep undisturbed for 10 minutes to extract the heat from the chili flakes.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar to provide acidity and stabilize the viscosity.
Optional: Pass the warm mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a sterilized glass jar if a clear consistency is desired.
Allow the mixture to reach ambient temperature before sealing and storing in a cool, dark environment.
