1. Mix the Ingredients
In a small saucepan, combine maple syrup, Sriracha, soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic powder. Stir well to mix everything together.

Heat the mixture over medium-low heat. Let it simmer for 3–5 minutes, stirring frequently. This helps the flavors meld together and thicken slightly.
Tip: Don’t boil too hard—gentle simmering preserves the maple flavor.
