Hula Girl Hot Sauce has danced its way into O'ahu stores after having been available mainly on the Big Island, where it's made. The spicy sauces in three varieties were developed by Big Island caterer and product designer Jill Inforzato. One of the three, Chipotle Habanero Sauce, won Best of Show in the Fiery Food Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas, in 2004.

You can find the sauces at Pat's Island Delights, The Wine Stop, The Compleat Kitchen, Executive Chef, It's Chili in Hawai'i, Cha Cha Cha Salsaria, Island Keepsakes, Martin & MacArthur and Aloha General Store. More information: www.jillscountrykitchen.com.

IN A HURRY? SHAKE THIS STUFF UP AND BE GOOD TO GO

Most low-cal powdered drinks taste like dreck, but Celestial Seasonings recently released a new line of flavored herbal teas that are calorie-free, easy to use and surprisingly good tasting, based on an Advertiser sampling. The teas combine green tea or herbs with natural fruit flavorings and are sweetened with stevia, a sweetener refined from the potently sweet leaves of a common South American bush also called honey leaf.

Zingers To Go are packaged in clever little foil tubes, ready to pour directly into a half-liter (16.9-ounce) bottle of water. You just shake and drink. Flavors include blueberry, peach, tangerine orange and wild berry. The teas, which offer antioxidants but do contain some caffeine (from green tea), will be carried by Safeway, Wal-Mart and health-food stores.
