    Need help from the BG Sriracha and Boba Lovers

    The local Boba (Bubble Tea if you're weird like that) house that I frequent is having a contest to design a new flavor to add to their specialty menu. I wanted to craft a flavor that used a couple drops of Sriracha to add some heat and some of it's crazy awesome flavor. I was wondering if any of you might have suggestions for what flavors might help accentuate the Sriracha. The Boba house has all the typical fruits (Orange, strawberry, watermelon, etc.) as well as some of the exotic ones (like lychee, guava, and taro) so there are plenty of possibilities. So what do you all think might pair well with the Rooster in this scenario?


    tldr; What fruit flavors best accentuate the heat and flavor of Sriracha?

    Also:
    inb4 just drink the damn Sriracha straight you pussy

    Lychee is a good flavor to meld with a spicy flavor in my experience.
    I would think you'd want to soak the lychee in a Sriracha flavored water (Not straight sauce) for a day or so then use them to spice the tea up.

    Drink the Sriracha you pussy.

    That's a tough one because Sriracha has some garlic flavor in there, along with the heat.

    Catch-22. Expressing your anti-hipster stance is more hip than putting some hot sauce on/in your foods.

    Ive mostly seen Mango paired with spiciness..that may be a good starting point.

    I feel like using an alternate source for spiciness like a straight pepper of some sort instead of a sauce might work better when paired with a fruity drink. I agree with the mango idea too, mango plus spicy is delicious.

    I'm liking the Mango idea, though I might consider Mango and Lychee with a bit of it since the Lychee can really bring out the flavor of the mango and such.

    The key is to make the spicy flavor appear after the sweetness. Chili chocolate is an example.

    The issue is, as already stated in this thread, it isn't so much the spicy as it is the garlic in the cock sauce.

    cocksauce isn't really that spicy, though bottles vary. It's the flavor you have to create the symphony of mouth sex with, not the heat.

    The garlic does seem like it would be a bit of an issue. What else might work in its place to get a good heat to come through after the sweetness of the mango hits the tongue?

    I would suggest chili pepper oil.

    http://moroccanfood.about.com/od/tip.../chili_oil.htm

    Basically heat up some oil and throw some dried hot chili flakes in it as it starts to cool back down, let it sit overnight for extra spice. Then strain. You get some really good heat, the kind that comes a little late and lingers, without any flakes that get stuck in your gums.
