Once you tried making this hot and sweet chili sauce, you’ll never want to use the bottled versions ever again.  First of all, there is no bottled equivalent.  There are some bottled sauces that are labeled “sweet and spicy”, but they just aren’t the same – they taste fake and are full of preservatives.  This homemade sweet and spicy sriracha sauce is the real deal.  If you are a fan of sweet and spicy, you need this sauce in your life.

Making your own dipping sauce might sound like something reserved for a fancy chef, but I assure you – this stuff is so easy to make, it’s easier than 99% of recipes that you will make in your life!  This sweet and spicy sauce recipe is put together in 5 minutes from start to finish! All you need to do is mix the ingredients and bring to boil.  That’s it!  Brown sugar is for sweetness, hot sauce is for spice, and other ingredients (vinegar, soy sauce and garlic) are for different flavor dimensions.  When the mixture comes to a boil, stir to dissolve the sugar and your awesome dipping sauce is ready!

This sweet and spicy sauce is pretty thick and sticky – so finger-licking good! Serve it right away while it’s still warm for maximum effect.  This dipping sauce thickens as it cools, so if you are planning to serve it later, add some water to it to thin it out.  When the sweet and hot taste hits your mouth, it will make you salivate and want more, more and more of this stuff! It is so addictive, just dip away!
