There's a whole Caribbean to dive in.

I sometimes have lunch at a Cuban restaurant. I just bought some of their
mojo criollo sauce, having tried it on some pork.

Lime juice, orange juice, water, garlic, salt, spices, citric acid,
xanthan gum.

I just noticed that the only company named on the label is the restaurant
(Veradero Cuban Cafe & Bakery). Guess it's their own product. Didn't
realize that.

"A long time ago a young man in Cuba, named Jacinto Caraballo, created
the perfect Mojo sauce. The spices and flavorings he used in his
original recipe soon became the talk of the town, and he bagan catering
for the Carnavales in Cuba. After immigrating to the U.S., Jacinto
opened a Cuban restaurant and introduced his special sauce to America.
You too can now enjoy this all natural Caraballo family Mojo sauce."

In short, he got his mojo workin'.
