Spicy Margarita

Spicy Tequila:

1 large glass bottle with seal or cap
8 jalapenos (seeded and cut length wise)
1 large bottle white tequila

Combine in the empty bottle the peppers and enough tequila to cover peppers of fill the bottle. Let sit for one to two weeks before use. The longer the better.

Spicy Margarita:

1 oz white tequila
1 oz spicy teguila
1 oz orange liqueur, such as Cointreau or Triple Sec
3 oz Jose Cuervo original margarita mix (I normally would use fresh lime juice and simple syrup but this mix is the perfect balance and much easier)
Ice Cubes
Coarse salt, optional
Lime wedge

1. Rub the rim of a rocks glass or margarita glass with the lime wedge and dip in salt.
2. Place tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice and ice in the glass and stir.


You can also combine the tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice and ice in a blender and blend for a frozen margarita.
