The secret is to gently tap down the quantity of product from the neck of the bottle before closing. Let air replace the clogged nozzle to break the tension and let the remainder drip down into the mass of the bottle. Be careful not to spray product upward!

If you're feeling fancy, you can also rinse the green nipple with water (after clearing of product). I do this periodically (every week or two). I might be a bit neurotic, but it works for me. This has alleviated all of the Sriracha leakage issues in my house.
