McDonald's and Hot Ones, the iconic YouTube show are the latest two forces to work together as they launch three limited-edition spicy sauces. These sauces are only available for a brief run which kicked off on November 5th earlier this month. The ranges of sauces ensure an a unique flavor journey and each one is inspired by tastes of the Scoville scale.
It starts off with Hell Piñata, which is only moderately spicy and joined by a smoky chipotle taste based on mayo at 10,000 Scoville units. The next sauce is Thaï-toi’, which is sweet and sour as the base as it infuses notes of ginger and lemongrass, complete with 70,000 Scoville units. Finally, Embrase-moi is a bolder BBQ sauce with citrus notes and habanero peppers, topped at over 200,000 Scoville units.
