[CH] Reusing hot sauce bottles?

I started making my own hot sauce (for private distribution only) this
past fall, and now I've got several empty bottles (standard 5-oz hot
sauce style) that used to contain it. Can I, if I clean and sterilize
these bottles, use them again for another batch of sauce?
I'm assuming that the caps and reducers (being plastic) probably can't
be effectively re-sterilized, but the bottles are glass, so a good few
minutes' boiling after they've been hand-washed and run through the
dishwasher to remove residue ought to do it - or am I wrong?
