As soon as the summer sunshine hits the patios, we start thinking about margaritas. There is just something about a margarita the screams good times. We recently fell in love with this spicy mango pineapple margarita served on the rocks. Wowza! The sweet & spicy combo makes it a great choice as a fun and unusual mocktail and also makes the cocktail version go down a little slower.
Make up a pitcher of the spicy mango base and let your friends & family decide for themselves whether they will be adding alcohol or not, and also how spicy they want to go by choosing their own garnishes.
It couldn’t be easier when you use a great hot sauce like Sriracha Revolver Clean Mango! This sauce has a crisp fruity flavour with just the right amount of kick so you can adjust for your spice preference but still get all the flavour. We even had time to mix up some Green Veggie Burgers with Spicy Beet Sauce for a perfect family BBQ!
With inspired flavour combinations that are exotic but also familiar, Sriracha Revolver produces the most amazing selection of hot sauces we have found anywhere. We have searched far & wide for sauces that are well balanced and flavourful but that also offer a choice in spice level. We didn’t need to look far since Jordan Hocking and her team were making them right here in our own community!
Made locally with love, every bottle of Sriracha Revolver is pure joy!
