Tips & Tricks

Making a Sweet and Spicy Tequila Mix is super fun, and I’ve got some awesome tips to help you out! 🌶️🍹

  • Chili Rim: Rub a lime wedge around the rim of your glass and dip it in a mix of salt and chili powder. It adds a fiery kick!
  • Sweetness Balance: Use fresh juices like orange or pineapple for natural sweetness. It keeps the flavor bright and fresh.
  • Ice Matters: Make sure to use fresh ice cubes. Crushed ice melts faster and can dilute the flavors.
  • Flavor Boost: Add a splash of fresh lime juice to give a zesty punch. It makes a big difference.
  • Garnishing: Add slices of jalapeños or a slice of fresh fruit like mango. It looks great and adds flavor.

A little garnish can make your drink Instagram-ready in no time! 📸
