Friendly Fire Tea & Lemon Hot Sauce (5oz)

Friendly Fire from T0tsauce in Plano, Texas, is an all-day tea-and-lemon hot sauce created in collaboration with Texas punk band Brave Days. Bright, tangy, and built around a friendly burn, it brings refreshing flavor and approachable heat to just about anything.

Guajillo and chile de árbol peppers meet hibiscus, coriander, and lemon zest for a sauce that feels familiar and unexpected at the same time. Its medium 5/10 heat level brings enough warmth to wake up a meal without drowning it out.

What it tastes like

Bright lemon and tart hibiscus lead the way, followed by earthy dried chiles, garlic, coriander, and a touch of brown sugar. The flavor is tangy, lightly floral, savory, and balanced, with a steady medium burn.

Think iced tea and lemon—if they joined a punk band and became a hot sauce.

What makes it different

Friendly Fire uses hibiscus and lemon zest to bring a refreshing, tea-inspired edge to a traditional vinegar-based hot sauce. Guajillo adds depth and chile de árbol supplies the heat, creating a versatile sauce with plenty of personality.

It is also gluten-free and vegan.
