This season, Red Cap Hot Sauce Co. is giving back with a donation to Second Harvest for every bottle sold. Red Cap does not water-down their sauce, but instead they put "flavour first, heat second." Made from local Ontario-grown scotch bonnet and habanero peppers (when in season), and complemented with red bell pepper, celery, cilantro, a herb called culantro or shadow beni and fresh squeezed lemon and lime juice.
Delicious on everything from morning eggs to hearty winter dishes, it’s a bold, small-batch gift for the foodie in your life.
This month, thanks to generous matching campaigns, throughout December your gift will go twice as far, meaning every $1 you give provides enough food for 10 meals. Thank you!
