Grilled Chipotle Lime Honey Glazed Chicken Wings

i made this for my family and they loved them, since i am a vegetarian, i just basted some of this glaze onto a piece of veggie grilled chicken, and it was delicious... add more chipotle puree if you want them to bee spicier, or less for milder and sweeter wings. if possible, do not leave out the grated panela, it adds a complexity of flavor that cannot be duplicated with other ingredients.
