Equipment

  • Cocktail shaker
  • Jigger or measuring cup
  • Strainer
  • Fine-mesh strainer
  • Citrus juicer
  • Cutting Board
  • Knife
  • Small plate for Tajín or salt
  • Rocks or margarita glass
  • Spoon or stir stick

Ingredients

  • 2 oz tequila blanco; or mezcal for smoky flavor
  • 1 oz triple sec or orange liqueur
  • 1 oz fresh lime juice
  • 1 oz peach juice or peach purée use ripe peaches if puréeing
  • 0.5 oz simple syrup or honey syrup
  • 2-3 slices fresh jalapeño seeded for less heat
  • Tajín or salt for rimming glass
  • ice cubes for shaking and serving
  • lime wedge or peach slice for garnish
  • soda water or orange juice splash, optional to lighten

Instructions

  • Rim your glass with lime, then dip in Tajín or salt. Fill the glass with fresh ice.
  • Add jalapeño slices and simple (or honey) syrup to a shaker; muddle gently to release heat.
  • Add tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and peach juice/purée. Add ice to the shaker.
  • Shake hard for ~15 seconds until well chilled, then fine‑strain into the prepared glass over fresh ice.
  • Optional: add a small splash of soda water or orange juice. Garnish with a lime wedge or peach slice and serve.

Notes

Taste and adjust before straining: add more agave/syrup for sweetness or extra lime for brightness. Remove jalapeño seeds for less heat. If using peach juice instead of purée, reduce sweetener slightly to keep balance.
