“Day of The Dead is a Mexican holiday observed throughout Mexico and around the world in other cultures. The holiday focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died. Traditions connected with the holiday include building private alters called ofrendas, honouring the deceased using sugar skulls, marigolds and the favourite books and beverages of the departed, and visiting graves with these as gifts. They also leave possessions of the deceased. Scholars trace the origin of the modern Mexican holiday to the indigenous observances dating back hundreds of years and to the Aztec festival dedicated to the goddess Mictecacihuatl”
Nice introduction … tells me nothing about the sauce, though!
This one’s pretty straight-up; ingredients are water, habaneros, vinegar, carrots, salt, xanthan, garlic and spices. You get the habanero flavour from the start, which subsides a little to let the garlic and spices through, then has a pretty long tail of heat to finish. It’s slightly on the runny side, but not inconveniently so.
7/10 – Tasty, all-rounder sauce, but without anything to make it stand out from the pack.
