Every April 20th we celebrate the anniversary of opening our flagship Brooklyn hot sauce shop and tasting room by creating a hot sauce that highlights a special ingredient never used in a hot sauce before. For HEATONIST No. 8, we worked with Honduran Chile Lengua De Fuego to cook up a sauce using native Honduran zapote fruit, a mild, sweet potato-like fruit. Tart passion fruit and bitter orange awaken the taste buds to the sweetness of Honduran rum, which mingles with ginger and the fruity heat of Scotch Bonnet peppers. You’re going to want to keep this hot sauce close at hand for caramelizing BBQ chicken, spicing up tacos, glazing pork chops, topping grilled halloumi and more. Add No. 8 to an icy cocktail for some hot-and-cold fun. Cheers to eight years of flavor!
