The 'Tropical Smoothie Cafe' recently teamed up with 'Frank's RedHot' to produce two signature sandwiches that are smothered in hot sauce. While most people dress their sandwiches with mustard or mayo, others prefer a condiment that will provide a bit of heat. These new chicken sandwiches provide a tasty option for consumers who prefer their dishes on the spicy side.
As part of the collaboration with Frank's Red Hot, the Tropical Smoothie Cafe has introduced the Island Buffalo Chicken Sandwich and the Moho Chicken Club. The Island Chicken Sandwich features grilled chicken, mozzarella, Gorgonzola and a house-made slaw. This sandwich is then smoothed in hot sauce. On the other hand, the Moho Mojo Club is made with bacon, avocado and a zesty mojo sauce. Both sandwiches are served on a toasted brioche bun.
The spicy chicken sandwiches are designed to appeal to consumers who prefer spicy over savory.
