Inspired by a popular traditional seasoning, Mexican-American food brand Siete launched a versatile Small-Batch Chilito Chile Lime Seasoning that has the potential to enhance everything from snacks and desserts to savory recipes. The seasoning mix prepared with red chiles, sea salt, citric acid, ground dates and lime oil is ready to sprinkle on [fresh fruits, sorbet, popsicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-riot-spicy-mango), candies, cocktails and more, satisfying the growing consumer demand for "[swicy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chili-lime-craisins)" flavors.
