TABASCO® Brand Pepper Sauce comes in a variety of

The versatility of TABASCO was evident during the 2008
National Restaurant Association Show. The company served a spicy carrot
cake ice cream made with TABASCO Habanero Pepper Sauce. It was just
fantastic. Many visitors, including me, queued up for a taste at their
show booth.
Combine all ingredients and mix well. Chill and serve with chopped
green onion on top.
