Combine sugar, yeast, salt, olive oil, milk, and water in a large mixer bowl with a dough hook. (I used my Bosch.) Add 2 cups of the flour and beat until smooth. Slowly add just enough flour to make a soft dough.
Knead on low speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest 5 minutes.
Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into an 8" long rope and tie into a knot. Place on a silicone lined or greased baking sheets.
Let rolls rise for 30-45 minutes or until doubled in size. Bake in a preheated oven at 350° until lightly browned, about 18-20 minutes.
While rolls are baking, combine all glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Brush rolls with the butter mixture while still hot.
Notes
Bread flour will produce chewier rolls with a crisper crust, but all purpose flour also works.
