Cayenne
Cayenne pepper (aka Capsicum Annuum) is a fiery spice native to Central and South America. This long, slender red chili can reach heat measured between 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville heat units! Don’t worry. That’s not too hot. In terms of the Hot Ones lineup, you’re looking at the fourth bottle out of the ten. So, is cayenne pepper just spice? No!
When added sparingly to juices (remember, it’s spicy), cayenne imparts a warmth and an extra dose of vitamins A, C and E, along with anti-inflammatory and circulation-boosting properties. At Little West, we add just enough to give you its benefits, but not so much that you won’t be able to drink your juice.
