Recipes Drinks Recipes Cocktail Recipes Margarita Recipes Spicy Jalapeno-Infused Margarita Be the first to rate & review! 2 Photos I have been infusing tequila for years with anything from jalapenos to blueberries. I like to use a good brand of tequila but it is not necessary since this tequila is not meant to be served in shots but in drinks, such as margaritas.

Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 1 servings ½ cup ice cubes, or as needed 3 ounces jalapeno-infused tequila 2 ounces freshly squeezed lime juice 1 ounce triple sec 1 ounce simple syrup kosher salt 1 wedge lime Directions Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add tequila, lime juice, triple sec, and simple syrup. Cover and shake until mixed and chilled. Place kosher salt on a plate. Run lime wedge around edge of glass and dip into kosher salt. Strain margarita into the glass. Cook's Notes: To make jalapeno-infused tequila, cut 3 jalapenos into strips, keeping the seeds. Add jalapenos and seeds to a 750 ml bottle of white tequila (such as Patron(R)). Allow jalapenos to infuse tequila at room temperature for a minimum of 16 hours. Strain tequila with a fine mesh strainer into another container. You can pour the infused tequila back into the bottle afterwards. If you deseed the jalapenos it will produce a less spicy tequila but it will still be flavored by the jalapenos. To make your own simple syrup, heat equal amounts of sugar and water in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Cool to room temperature and store in the refrigerator.
