Jalapeño Margarita Recipe

Licking the salt off the rim of my coin margarita while people-watching under the T/aco twinkle lights as the sun sets - a favorite summertime activity. Who else can't wait for patio-seating, people-watching, & Patrón? I'm already on it with my weekly balcony margaritas, mixing it up, & trying different recipes to share with YOU!

Add a little spice to your sweet summer marg with my latest jalapeno cilantro recipe!

Ingredients

• 1.5 fl. oz. of your favorite tequila!*

• 2 fl. oz. limeade**

• jalapeño

• cilantro

• lime

• ice

• Topo Chico

• pink Himalayan sea salt

The Process

• grab your shaker (I use an old coffee mug with a tight lid & shake over the sink)

• pour into your shaker: tequila, limeade, a crushed jalapeño slice & a few crushed cilantro leaves

• before adding anything to your glass, coat the rim with lime & dip in salt (if desired)

• once your rim is salted, pour the mixture in your shaker over ice

• top with Topo Chico to add some fizz

• squeeze & toss a lime wedge into your cocktail

• garnish with a jalapeño slice on the rim & you're good to go!
