You might try using tobasco sauce. It will dissolve unlike ground
capiscum peppers. However I believe that you should be able to dissolve
enough of the active ingredient from finely ground capiscum peppers to
do the trick. I usually use about 1 or 2 tsp of red pepper to a gallon
of warm water, let soak for 1 hour, and then strain through some nylon
stockings. You can try to add some crushed garlic to the mix also.
