Can Mountain Dew’s New Hot Sauce Battle These Hudson Valley Flavors?

One of the most popular soda brands made an announcement. As they bring in new soda flavors, they also have a surprise as well.

Mountain Dew has come out with their very first, hot sauce. Baja Blast Hot Sauce has taken over social media with its release and consumers are excited.

How Can Consumers Get Their Hands On Mountain Dew's Hot Sauce?

Baja Blast will be available to those interested but in a different type of way. You have to enter to win your very own bottle of this highly desired hot sauce.

Mountain Dew fans can enter to win via their website. There are only a limited amount of bottles available but thankfully, these will be given away to those lucky winners.

Since there is a short supply, the company will not be selling them but instead, giving them away.

This takes place now through February 8, 2023.

Kingston, NY is the home of Ram's Valley sauces and more.

Owner, Richard Rajkumar, also known as "Ram," is from Trinidad but now lives in Kingston, NY. He uses his love of Caribbean sauce and beverages in addition to fresh ingredients from local farms to make his products come to life. 

Consumers have called Ram's Valley's sauce "mind-blowing" and a "dance on the tongue." If I had the option to, I would try their Pineapple BBQ sauce and Thyme Infused Olive Oil.
