Ingredients

  • Salt

    The foundation. Balances the acids and heat so the burn hits clean instead of muddy.

  • Citric Acid

    Pure sour punch — brightens the lime profile and makes the heat feel sharper on the tongue.

  • Powdered Lime

    Real lime character in dry form. Zesty, tart, and unmistakably limey — it's in the name for a reason.

  • Malic Acid

    Green-apple tang that layers under the citric bite for a longer, more complex sour finish.

  • Lactic Acid

    A subtle fermented roundness that smooths the edge between sour and spice without dulling either.

  • MSG

    Amplifies every flavor in the blend — makes the lime pop and the chilies taste deeper and richer.

  • Korean Chili Powder

    Gochugaru-style heat with a smoky, slightly sweet backbone — the everyday fire in the mix.

  • Thai Bird's Eye Chili

    Fast, fierce heat that lights up fast and fades just enough to let the next bite hurt again.

  • Ghost Pepper

    Bhut jolokia territory — slow-building, face-melting heat for those who asked for more.

  • Scorpion Pepper

    Sting-forward and floral on the nose, vicious on the palate. Not here to be subtle.

  • Carolina Reaper

    Currently the world's hottest pepper. A small amount goes a very, very long way.

  • Cellulose Powder

    Anti-caking agent that keeps the blend free-flowing so every shake delivers the same punishment.
