⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Mexican approved 😄 Definitely a new staple. Good on everything!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "The flavor is phenomenal. This is the best hot sauce I've ever had."
— Quentin G., Verified Buyer
From Mexico City, this traditional Mexican tabletop hot sauce is Chef Julio MM's ode to Salsa Valentina — only elevated and all natural. YaYa gets her delicious flavor, bright beautiful red color, and medium burn from five approachable Mexican chiles, mainly Chile de Arbol and Chile Guajillo.
Drizzle away. We especially love YaYa in soups, on seafood, chicken wings, and fresh fruit. But the best? In a Michelada — add to beer with fresh lime juice for the ultimate badass YaYa.
How do you YaYa? Everyday. Anytime. Anywhere.
- Julio MM, Executive Chef, Cantina Royal
PRO TIP: Add to beer with fresh lime juice for the ultimate Michelada — you'll never go back.
