Thoughts: 

Eric (Kelli's husband) "I think the chili is a bit too much. I'd rate it a 6.2 on a hot day by the pool...it might be alright."
4.5/10

Kelli "It was kind of plain"
4/10  

Nik "Very one note. the chili powder is a bit woah. I feel like the drink isn't dimensional enough for the chili powder. The added changes made it a little better, but meh. I wouldn't ask for it again. 
4.6/10

Overall: 4.5/10 Won't be making again
