Step 1

Start by mixing the lime juice and a slice of onion in a small bowl, making sure the onion is fully submerged. Let it sit for about 2 to 3 hours so the flavors can meld. Once the time’s up, take out the onion and throw it away. Next, stir in the orange juice, a splash of hot sauce, and a pinch of salt into the lime juice mixture. Give everything a good mix, then pop it in the fridge to chill before you’re ready to serve.

- Use freshly squeezed citrus juices for the best flavor.
- Adjust the spice level by adding more or less chili powder or hot sauce.
