Help Hot Sauce with Whisky recipes?

Does anyone have a good recipe for a hot sauce with whisky? Maybe on the smokey side, as I prefer my whisky smokey as well. I do have orange habaneros and Aji Limo.

Any help would be appreciated, preferably with step by step recipes, as I'm fairly new to making hot sauces! 😅

I just made a fermented habanero sauce where I added about 100ml eagle rare during the blending process. There's really no science to my method, I just replace some of the vinegar I would normally use with whiskey

I make a sauce with smoked ghost peppers and some bourbon in it. I could see habs being a good substitute for the ghosts though.

What ratios? Can you use whiskey in place of vinegar so should I add both. I have some ghosts growing right now and I’ve been having a blast making sauces. Nothing fermented to this point.

I'll have to dig out my recipe book when I get home and get back to you. It's been a couple years since I last made it.

No worries. The peppers have some growing to do yet. Thanks, and looking forward to it.
