A Sweet & Spicy Partnership

This year, Viva Abejas at Maya welcomes a new collaborator: Mike’s Hot Honey.

Known for their signature blend of honey infused with chili peppers, Mike’s Hot Honey shares our passion for celebrating one of the world’s most important ingredients—honey. Through this partnership, Maya will feature Mike’s Hot Honey syrup in select cocktails, bringing a vibrant sweet heat to this year’s bee-centric beverage program.

Our bartenders have crafted cocktails that highlight the balance of agave spirits, fresh citrus, and the bold character of Mike’s Hot Honey, creating layered flavors that pay homage to the bees that make it all possible.

Join us at Maya during Viva Abejas and experience these limited-time cocktails featuring Mike’s Hot Honey syrup as part of our seasonal celebration of bees, sustainability, and flavor.
