If you love your heat with a splash of sweetness, this Pineapple Habanero Hot Sauce will be your new go-to condiment. It’s bold, vibrant, and made with just a handful of fresh ingredients in 15 minutes or less. Perfect for tacos, grilled meats, seafood, or even drizzled over roasted veggies!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups fresh pineapple, diced
- 2 habanero peppers (seeded for less heat, leave seeds in for extra spice)
- ½ cup white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for balance)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1. Blend the Ingredients
Add the pineapple, habaneros, vinegar, lime juice, garlic, honey, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Simmer
Pour the blended mixture into a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This helps meld the flavors and gives the sauce a nice consistency.
3. Cool and Bottle
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Transfer the sauce to a clean glass jar or bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Heat Level Tips:
- Milder version: Remove all seeds and membranes from the habaneros.

- Even more flavor: Add a bit of grated ginger or a splash of orange juice!
Serving Suggestions:
