I don’t like the taste of raw onions in a drink like this, and I wouldn’t blame you if you left the onions out, but they are traditionally a part of the drink. As well, you can add fresh chiles if you’d like more heat. You can add tomato juice, about one cup, to this basic recipe if you’d like to try it that way. Take a sip of tequila and “chase” it with a sip of Sangrita. You can keep it in the refrigerator for about two days. Pour into a serving vessel or a bottle to store. Then drain the liquid through a layer of clean cheesecloth place in a fine-mesh sieve, to get rid of any bits of onion. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until perfectly smooth. Sangrita means “little blood” in Spanish, and it refers to the color of the drink, which is sort of orange-red color. It can be made with fresh chiles, like anchos, but here is spiced up with Cholula. This version is more traditional to Jalisco, which is made with orange juice and grenadine. There are versions made with tomato juice, but that is like the Bloody Mary’s hipper cousin, or at least Virgin Mary’s. Now, if you’re into tequila, and you also happen to be into Cholula, here is a recipe for Mexican Sangrita. They spared no effort to get it on the tables of restaurants and everywhere else they could. In the 1980’s Jose Cuervo, the tequila makers, heard about the sauce and thought it was pretty boss, so they licensed the brand and introduced it to the U.S. The word cholula is from a Nahuatl word (language spoken before the Spaniards) and means “place of retreat.” Cholula city from Pyramid Don’t confuse sangrita with sangria, the fruity Spanish drink, by the way.Ĭholula was named after after the oldest inhabited city in Mexico, a place that is famous for having a boat-load of churches: 365 of them. The sauce was first made by a Mexican family in the area of Jalisco, and they made the sauce mainly for use in sangrita, which is a spicy nonalcoholic drink that would be served as a chaser to tequila shots (Jalisco is famous for tequila). It has only been commercially available in the U.S. I have no idea how long, generally, these sources suppose a “generation” to be, but I’d guess that the sauce is at least 60 to 75 years old. Cholula Hot Sauce ProductsĪccording to the company and other sources, Cholula hot sauce has been in existence for at least three generations. Don’t get me wrong, I love scorching hot stuff, but if a hot sauce is too hot, and the heat is right up front, your taste buds won’t register the flavor. Cholula is about pleasant heat and good taste.
In general, this means that Cholula hot sauce is about half as hot as Tabasco sauce, or a little less that that. Cholula hot sauce itself, however, is a mild sauce, generally 1000 Scoville heat units, which is what the company itself indicates, but values up to 3000 have been reported. To put the heat in perspective, the mildest pequin is about 6 times hotter than the hottest jalapeno. The original is made with pequin and árbol (Chile de árbol) chiles.
