A surprising find at Target, but also available at many other places.
Ingredients:
Filtered Water
Organic Blood Orange Juice
Organic Agave Nectar
Organic Habanero Pepper
Yep, folks, that's it - no preservatives or other ingredients you can't pronounce. And no apple or pear juice as filler. Still, I was skeptical, thinking this probably has only enough habanero in it to tickle the taste buds of non-chileheads but I was pleasantly surprised at the heat level. I'd say it's hot enough to scare away most non-chileheads, at least of the midwestern variety. And for chileheads, it's got a nice balance of heat to sweet. Leaves a nice little burn after each swallow, but it's not blazing hot so it's infinitely drinkable. I'd say it's a winner.
Wild Poppy currently has three additional flavors - Peach Vanilla, Grapefruit Ginger, and Peppermint Lemonade. I haven't tried the lemonade yet but have tried the other two. My impression of the Peach Vanilla is that the vanilla comes on a bit too strong. However, I think it would be great as a mixer. I really enjoyed the Grapefruit Ginger variety, though not as much as I liked the Blood Orange Chili. These 10-oz glass bottles aren't inexpensive but pretty much everything labeled "organic" comes with a premium, so I'd say it's in the average range for a premium product. However, you can easily stretch these out - although water is listed as the first ingredient, these have a very intense juice flavor to them - it wouldn't hurt at all to add a bit more water or other liquid to make them go further.
On a 5-star scale, I'd give the Blood Orange Chili variety a 4.5. It's a 5 in terms of flavor and heat (for a beverage), but I'm taking it down a tad for the price.

I can't tell you how many bottles of tequila, vodka, and rum I've infused with chiles over the years. Letting fresh pods steep right in the bottles for several weeks really pulls the capsaicin into the liquid. Dried pods infuse even faster. No need to dilute your shots with juice!
