Jalapeño Margarita
If you can't beat the heat, might as well turn it up with a spicy cocktail. This makes enough for four to six margaritas.
Ingredients
1 lime, cut into quarters
1 jalapeño cut into coins, seeds removed for less heat
8 oz blanco tequila or mezcal
2 oz orange liqueur
4 oz lime juice
2 oz agave syrup
Method
- Rub the rim of the glass with the lime wedges and then dredge in salt
- Combine the jalapeño coins, tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice, agave, and ice and shake until well-chilled
- Strain and pour over fresh ice in the glass
- Serve with an additional jalapeño coin
