Add the vinegar, water, sugar, and salt to the saucepan, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 10 minutes, or until the peppers have softened.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Then, transfer the mixture to a blender or a food processor and blend until smooth.
Once the hot sauce is blended to your desired consistency, taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. This is where you can make it to your liking. You can add more salt, sugar, or vinegar to suit your preferences.
