kcalIf you’ve never had a spicy margarita before, this is the one to make. Not only because it’s super simple but because spicy tequila paired with sweet ginger beer and a lick of sea salt creates the most incredible flavor trifecta your tastebuds could ever imagine.
Ingredients
- Habanero-Infused Tequila
750 mL Tequila
3 Medium Habaneros, sliced with seeds
- Margaritas
1/4 Cup Habanero-infused Tequila
2 Tbsp Fresh lime Juice
1/2 Cup Non-alcoholic Ginger Beer
Lime Wedges for Serving
Directions
- Habanero-Infused Tequila
- Thinly slice the habanero peppers, keeping the seeds in tact. Transfer peppers to a quart-sized mason jar and add tequila. Screw on the lid, shake well and allow to soak for at least 4-6 hours, or up to 3 days if time allows. Keep the jar out of direct sunlight.
- When fully infused, pour tequila through a mesh strainer to remove the peppers and seeds. Pour tequila back into the jar or original tequila bottle. If returning infused tequila to the original bottle, you may want to label it so unknowing guests don’t get a spicy surprise later.
- Margaritas
- First, prepare the glasses. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass and press each into a small plate of coarse salt until the rim is lined with salt. Fill each glass with ice and set aside.
- Combine all ingredients directly in the prepared glass. Stir well and finish with a squeeze of fresh lime.
