Greeley, Colorado-based American Honey-focused natural foods brand, Local Hive™, has announced its line of Honey-based hot sauces called Local Hive™ Honey Hot Sauces.

The product line includes 7 flavors that are exclusively available at all Whole Foods Market stores in the US.

The key ingredients of the line include 100% locally US-sourced honey and peppers.

• Original (medium): Red jalapeno peppers and honey add a sting to meats, pizza, and sauces.
• Hatch Chile with Southwest Honey (medium): Smoky, aged hatch chiles and southwest honey bring balanced heat to eggs, Mexican food, and queso.
• Mango Habanero (medium): A sweet, slightly spicy, and citrus-tinged blend of mangoes, habanero, and honey adds a kick to seafood, tacos, or sauces.
• Cayenne with Southeast Honey (medium): Southern spices and subtle sweetness are perfect for pairing with wings, pizza, or gumbo.
• Chipotle with Texas Honey (medium): A mellow, BBQ-inspired blend of chipotle peppers and Texas honey brings rich flavor to smoked meats, Mexican food, and chili.
• Sriracha (hot): A pleasantly spicy blend of red jalapeno and honey gets tastes buds buzzing when paired with Asian food, soups, and eggs.
• Habanero (hot): A kick of heat with a little sweet adds bold, spicy flavor to grilled meats, dips, and sandwiches.

Local Hive™ Honey Hot Sauces feature honey sourced from regions across the U.S. as the main ingredient, along with selected peppers, white distilled vinegar, and garlic and onion powder. They offer a spicy and sweet taste, with less than 10 calories and 2g of sugar per serving.

The suggested retail price is $4.99 to $5.99 per 6oz bottle.

Within the fast-growing hot sauce category, we found there was a demand for options that offered a sweeter taste profile. By adding our 100% American honey blends to classic hot sauce recipes, we’re able to give consumers a diverse range of sweet-heat options to fit a variety of spice preferences, while also continuing our commitment to support American beekeepers by providing them a new outlet for their honey.
