We’re thrilled to announce that our beloved Heat Enhancer hot sauce has been crowned the Best Hot Sauce in the Netherlands for 2024! 🌶️🏆

This sweet & spicy sensation wowed an independent panel of judges at the Dutch Chilifest 2024, beating out fierce competition from across the country. Our unique blend of Chipotle, Habanero and Whiskey clearly struck a chord with the experts!

What makes this win even sweeter is knowing that our loyal fans have been singing Heat Enhancer’s praises all along. Now, we’ve got the official stamp of approval to back up what you’ve been telling us!

So, whether you’re a long-time Heat Enhancer enthusiast or curious to try the Netherlands’ top-rated hot sauce, grab a bottle and spice up your life! After all, you’re now holding the officially recognized best hot sauce in the country. How cool is that?

Hot sauces don’t only go well on all sorts of food, you can even spice up drinks with it. To demonstrate this, we have made three somewhat classic cocktails that involve hot sauces, to give them an (extra) spicy twist.

Spicy Margarita

In the video below you will find our spicy take on the classic margarita cocktail. This zingy and fresh cocktail goes super well with our Immune Booster hot sauce, since this also has a lot of lime and fresh ingredients like Jalapeño, tomatillo and several types of herbs.

Michelada

Also a classic Mexican cocktail is the Michelade. The original recipe already calls for hot sauce, but we had to throw in our Tranquilizer hot sauce of course. This one adds a bit more heat due to the habanero pepper and some smokyness from the smoked paprika.

Extra spicy Bloody Mary

Last but not the least is the Bloody Mary. The classic recipe is already great, but if you want to ramp up the heat on this cocktail you might want to use our Brain Buzzer hot sauce, as we did in our recipe video. This hot sauce contains the Carolina Reaper pepper, officially the hottest in the world still. This cocktail is nice on a summer day, but does equally well at a party during winter time. This will get you warm for sure.

YEAH! We staan in Foodies Magazine, één van Nederlands grootste food tijdschriften.

Redactrice Anne kwam bij ons op bezoek en interviewde ons over het ontstaan van Raijmakers Heetmakers en hot sauces in het algemeen. Resultaat is een hele leuke reportage van maar liefst 6 pagina’s, inclusief een recept voor een lekkere Jalapeño saus die we samen met Anne maakten.
