This bottle isn’t just hot — it’s hallelujah hot. The kind of heat that makes grown adults rethink their life choices, hiccup uncontrollably, and suddenly believe in higher powers.

💥 Warning:
Side effects may include sweating, joy, regret, happiness, and asking for more.

🤝 Our Spiciness Guarantee:
Think it’s not spicy enough? We’ll refund you — no questions asked. (But we will judge you… affectionately.)
