Drunken Jerk Jamaican Marinade is a complex combination of Jamaican jerk seasoning with just the right balance of thyme, allspice, habanero peppers, and garlic. We balanced the favor with dark rum to make it “drunken” and added soy sauce to make this the perfect marinade. Many cooks are overwhelmed by using jerk favors; our marinade makes it easy way to enjoy the complexities of jerk seasonings. There are many creative ways to use this sauce: marinating fish, chicken, tofu and pork; add it to a Cuban style sandwich; mix it with ranch for a spicy dip; make a mean Dr.

In 2018 we added Serrabanero Green Hot Sauce. In 2021, three new sauces were added to the Aardvark line up- Red Scorpion Fiery Hot Sauce, Smoky Aardvark Chipotle-Hab Sauce, and Aardvark Reaper Smoked Hot Sauce.
