Taj�n releases spicy sorbets

One of them is mango flavored, while the other is lime, and they’re both finished off with Taj�n’s Chili Lime Seasoning. They have been spotted at the grocery store HEB this week, retailing at $6.97 for a 33.8 oz tub.

“Experience the refreshing taste of lime sorbet paired with Taj�n chili lime seasoning for a frozen treat everyone enjoys,” the description says.

Both are available in-store and online, and are fat-free, dairy-free, and made without any preservatives or artificial flavors.

The much-loved spice mix was created in 1985 by Horacio Fern�ndez, who strived to recreate the flavors of a sauce made by his grandmother. It’s named after the Mexican archaeological site�El Taj�n, which he visited in 1985.

Aj� means chili pepper in Spanish, so the name perfectly combines his love for the pre-Columbian�site with the seasoning’s contents. The spice mix consists predominantly of lime,�chili peppers and salt, and is used to flavor dishes across the world.

‘What in the ice-cold heartburn’

The new sorbets have had mixed reactions, with some eager to try the spicy desserts and others not so sure.

One person said: “I want to try them.”

“This is wild!” someone else added.

A third person gasped: “What in the ice-cold heartburn.”

Another said the sorbets would make perfect margarita floats.

One guy tried the sorbets on TikTok and said you get an “overload” of Taj�n flavor . He rated the mango 7/10 and the lime 8.5/10, describing them as the “perfect summer snack”.

The new release comes as Starbucks has recently launched a range of spicy refreshers that contain real chili powder!

There are three flavors, Spicy Dragonfruit, Spicy Pineapple and Spicy Strawberry, which are all combined with a Spicy Chili Powder Blend.
