The best hot sauce adds a kick of heat to everything you eat\u2014but it should taste good, too. Even if you\u2019re just adding a few drops to ramen<\/a>, wings<\/a>, or tacos<\/a>, you want a hot sauce that complements the flavors rather than just singeing your taste buds, even if you\u2019re a total heat freak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we first published this list of the best hot sauces, we did our best to create a roundup of well-reviewed hot sauces from the most popular hot sauce brands, but over the past several months, we expanded our search by conducting taste tests of individual styles of hot sauce. So now, this list includes the best green hot sauce, the best habanero hot sauce, the best ghost pepper hot sauce, the best Louisiana hot sauce, and even the best datil pepper hot sauce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are there other super unique, hyper-regional and niche hot sauces that aren\u2019t on this list? Absolutely. And we will get to them. That said, this is a pretty dang perfect list of the best tasting hot sauce you can easily find on Amazon\u2014or even on your next grocery run. Grab a glass of milk\u2014this one\u2019s gonna sting! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Hot Sauce for Eggs<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Cholula Original Hot Sauce<\/strong><\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n
Amazon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

I know the debate will continue no matter what, but I firmly believe that when it comes to popular Mexican hot sauces, Cholula is not as good as Tapatio (see #3). That being said, all of our taste testers agreed that Cholula is the best hot sauce for breakfast. The flavor of Cholula tastes like it was made for eggs, no matter the preparation: poached eggs, scrambled eggs, omelets, and even breakfast burritos<\/a> filled with eggs. No other hot sauce can compare to Cholula when it comes to breakfast. The flavor and consistency are both great in general, but we can\u2019t get over how perfectly this stuff cuts through the fattiness of egg yolks and how its peppery flavor profile tastes perfect yet isn\u2019t so aggressive that it\u2019ll ruin the rest of your day. Truly, if this were a list of the best hot sauces for breakfast, Cholula would top the list!. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tabasco Green Pepper Sauce<\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Our taste tests revealed that Green Jalapeno Tabasco is far superior to regular ol\u2019 Tabasco sauce. It\u2019s so good, in fact, that it tops our list of the best hot sauce for green hot sauce<\/a> lovers (it\u2019s also one of the best Louisiana hot sauces<\/a>, according to our ranking). Chances are you\u2019ve tried this hot sauce at Chipotle. It\u2019s bright and tangy in a way that cuts through the richness of delectably fatty foods like sour cream<\/a>, chicken thighs, or extra cheesy pizza<\/a>. Just thinking about this hot sauce\u2019s zing makes my mouth pucker in the most pleasant way possible. Even if you think you don\u2019t like Tabasco, please give this elite version a try. Among the best green hot sauces, this scores a 10\/10. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This habanero hot sauce is one of a few products at Trader Joe\u2019s that is actually spicy<\/a>. On top of that, it\u2019s also crazy flavorful. It has a powerful, long burn and fruity habanero undertones. My favorite part is that there are whole pepper seeds in this hot sauce, which add great heat and texture.

Dat\u2019l Do-It Datil Pepper Hot Sauce<\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n
Amazon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

The datil pepper is a yellow, sweet-hot pepper that\u2019s similar to the habanero, and if you aren\u2019t familiar with it, you probably aren\u2019t from Northeast Florida, where it\u2019s a local delicacy. This Dat\u2019l Do-It hot sauce is sold in pretty much every souvenir shop in St. Augustine, Florida, but if you won\u2019t be heading down that way anytime soon, you can (and should) get it on Amazon like we did\u2014particularly if you like a sticky-sweet hot sauce. It\u2019s more of a condiment than a hot sauce. It\u2019s simultaneously sweet and savory, like ketchup or like pepper jelly. The top ingredient is ketchup, but it\u2019s got a lot more going on, like Worcestershire sauce, onions, and bell peppers. The heat is pretty mild, but it\u2019s there. Maybe it\u2019s the Northeast Floridian in me, but I want to dunk some fried shrimp<\/a> in this so badly. If you\u2019re looking for the best hot sauce to really pile on a sandwich or to use without mixing with another sauce, this is the stuff! \u2014Gwynedd Stuart<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I couldn\u2019t decide how I felt about TRUFF when I first tried it. It\u2019s certainly flavorful, but it almost reminded me more of BBQ sauce<\/a> than hot sauce. After a few more licks, I realized I was totally wrong. It\u2019s absolutely delicious. It\u2019s truffly, savory, and a little spicy. It\u2019s super thick, which makes it the best hot sauce for wings if you want to mix things up and forgo the Buffalo sauce<\/a> route. I mix it with mayo<\/a> to make a spicy truffle aioli to slather on my burgers<\/a>. If anything you\u2019re eating could use some sophisticated flavor and a kick of spice, this will do the trick. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secret Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce<\/strong><\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n
Amazon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

I first tried Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce when I was visiting Portland because PDX residents insist this is the best hot sauce and that there are basically no other hot sauces that matter or exist. After trying this roasty sauce, their mania finally made sense! This hot sauce is very delicious. Obviously, I had to add it to the list of best tasting hot sauces to try for our taste test and luckily everyone agreed: Aardvark is really, really good. It tastes a lot spicier than it looks and has a flavor that I think best complements breakfast dishes and Mexican food. It loses half a spork because the tiny hole in the bottle\u2019s cap is so small that it\u2019s difficult to dispense the amount of hot sauce I actually want. What are you afraid of, Aardvark? Give me a bigger hole! \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Datil Pepper <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Zab\u2019s Original Datil Pepper Hot Sauce<\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n
Amazon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

As I mentioned in the Dat\u2019l Do It review (see #13), I grew up in Northeast Florida and I didn\u2019t realize datil pepper hot sauce was a regional thing until I moved elsewhere. Anyway, I love that datil pepper hot sauce is having a moment thanks to Zab\u2019s, an L.A.-based brand that\u2019s latched onto the lovely sweet-hot datil. Their Original hot sauce is so unique. It\u2019s mustardy, kind of like Carolina BBQ sauce but in hot sauce form. The heat is pleasant, not overpowering, but if you like a real sizzler, you won\u2019t like this. It\u2019s a \u201cslow burn\u201d as the bottle advertises\u2014it builds but it won\u2019t scorch. Someone on the Zab\u2019s team must be from Florida, because this stuff reminds me so much of the signature sauce at Jenkins BBQ<\/a>, a Jacksonville institution. If you are datil curious, this is the best hot sauce to buy. \u2014Gwynedd Stuart<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it didn\u2019t top our list of the best sriracha<\/a> (see #1 for that sauce),  Huy Fong deserves a spot on our list of the best hot sauce for a variety of reasons. The stuff is a classic! It\u2019s a little spicy but mild enough that heat-haters can still enjoy it. It\u2019s affordable and comes in a huge bottle. And, most importantly, it is good on literally everything. Everything! Pho, scrambled eggs, avocado toast, tacos, burgers, pizza. The town of Irwindale, California, where Huy Fong\u2019s sriracha is manufactured, voted to declare the scent coming from the factory a public nuisance<\/a>, but I think the idea of a sriracha-scented town sounds like a dream come true. Irwindale, here I come! \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my go-to po\u2019boy hot sauce. It\u2019s the best tasting hot sauce among lots of other vinegar-based hot sauces because it\u2019s nice and thick, and it has just the right amount of vinegary tang. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

People tend to like ghost pepper hot sauce because it is incredibly hot\u2014but that doesn\u2019t mean it shouldn\u2019t also taste really good. Chuffed Sweet Heat gets that.

The consistency is perfect, too\u2014just thick enough not to be runny, but not so thick that it borders on salsa territory.

The fresh pepper flavor and citrusy zing made it a standout hit in multiple best hot sauce taste tests. The first time I tried this Texas-based hot sauce brand years ago, I liked it so much that I went to HEB and stocked up on every flavor to bring home.

If hot peppers were a boy band, habanero would be the one that broke off to start a solo career. With its combo of heat and complex fruitiness, it\u2019s truly a pepper that can stand on its own, so why not embrace it in all its glory? Well, that\u2019s exactly what Marie Sharp\u2019s did. They didn\u2019t rely on other ingredients to make one of the best hot sauces, only pure habanero heat that requires a \u201cbeware\u201d warning on this bottle of the aggressively named Comatose Heat Level Habanero Pepper Sauce. Is this sauce intense? Heck yeah! But that\u2019s just what has us here at Sporked<\/em> salivating over it. This is one of the best hot sauces for true heat seekers. \u2014Madison Ramirez<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we\u2019ve established, this Austin, Texas-based brand knows how to make hot sauce. Yup, Yellowbird landed on our list of the best hot sauces not once but twice! Their sauces are sensationally complex and flavorful, and this particular sauce is garlicky, savory, and a little sweet. The base contains carrots, which I think is the secret to its unique flavor. This sauce is also pretty spicy for a jalape\u00f1o-based sauce. To me, this tastes kind of like a Mexican version of sriracha, and if that doesn\u2019t sell you on it, I don\u2019t know what will. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n

We tasted Cholula, Valentina, and Tapatio side by side. Some of the team exclusively buys Cholula and some of us swear by Valentina. No one was riding for Tapatio. Needless to say, we were all shocked and humbled to learn that Tapatio is easily, without a doubt, the best Mexican hot sauce of the three. It has so much well-rounded flavor, it\u2019s the perfect thickness, and there\u2019s a good burn at the end. From here on out, I will only be reaching for Tapatio when I\u2019m spicing up a taco, burrito, or plate of nachos. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Yucateco is the legitimately hot<\/em> hot sauce of my dreams. Unlike a lot of super spicy hot sauces, this habanero-based sauce actually tastes good. It doesn\u2019t just taste like chemicals and, even though it\u2019s outrageously spicy, it brings so much more to the table than heat. The flavor is a little fruity, slightly peppery, and super savory. This stuff is so hot that I add one drop per bite instead of dousing my entire meal in it like I have to do with other hot sauces. Eat and enjoy with caution! This is the best hot sauce for folks who like an intense burn. \u2014Jordan Myrick<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t just a capsaicin fix; the flavors are deliciously complex and compelling. Our only criticism of this hot sauce? They should sell it in bigger bottles. \u2014Madison Ramirez<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
