Spicy Margarita Mix Cocktail Recipe
I love making a Spicy Margarita! 🍹 It’s bursting with bold flavors that really kick it up a notch. Here’s how I make it at home with just a few tools and ingredients.
Equipment
- The essentials include a cocktail shaker to mix and chill the drink.
- A jigger helps me measure the liquids just right.
- I use a strainer to ensure my cocktail is smooth and keeps out the ice.
- A cutting board and knife come in handy for slicing limes and jalapeños.
- Lastly, I grab a rocks glass for serving, which gives it a classic feel
Ingredients
Here's a list of what I use to make my Spicy Margarita unbeatable:
- 2 oz tequila
- 1 oz lime juice
- 1 oz orange liqueur
- 1-2 slices of jalapeño for that spicy kick
- Ice
- Lime wedges for garnish
- Salt for rimming the glass if you like
These ingredients make the perfect blend of sour, sweet, and spicy!
Instructions
Let me walk you through the process.
- First, I rim my glass with salt. It's optional but adds a nice touch.
- I then fill my shaker with ice, add tequila, lime juice, and orange liqueur.
- Next, I pop in the jalapeño slices. I shake it all up vigorously for about 15 seconds to combine everything well and chill it.
- After shaking, I strain the mix into my prepared rocks glass over fresh ice.
