1/3 cup orange juice
1/4 cup honey

1/2 tbsp sriracha (add more for additional kick)

1. Combine all of the ingredients except the chicken in a medium bowl along with half a teaspoon of salt. Whisk to combine.
2. Season the drumsticks with salt and pepper and place into the Slow cooker. Pour the sauce over the chicken and stir to coat. Cover and cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through.
3. Remove the drumsticks to a plate. Transfer the liquid from the Slow cooker to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, until syrupy. Pour over the drumsticks to serve. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
