Mk9: “DIVA JUICE”
Inspiration for DIVA JUICE: “If the essence of a TRUE DIVA isn’t liquid gold that delights, excites, and ultimately burns you to your core… then you don’t know what 'you’re talking about.”
Created for the 1st Annual Hot-Sauce Contest night on 11/15/24, by a team consisting of Eli Russell guiding some other Divas-in-training. One of the two co-winners of the night. But while the other sauce won for its exotic attributes, Diva Juice won for being the most delicious hot sauce produced that night.
