Spicy Strawberry Jalapeno Margarita

Strawberry Jalapeño Margarita for Taco Tuesday’s & every other day that ends with a ‘Y’

My new favorite way to make bulk drinks is making a sort of purée. So whether you have fresh strawberries or cucumbers or jalapeños I’ve been blending them with water, straining and using in my cocktails! It’s such an easy way to add flavor. Pro tip: if you have fruit going bad you could make a purée and freeze in an ice tray 😉

2 oz Tequila
1 oz Strawberry Jalapeño purée*
3/4 oz Cointreau
3/4 oz Lime Juice
1/2 oz Agave Syrup
Ice
Rim: Tajin
Garnish: Mint & lime wheel

In a cocktail shaker add all ingredients.
Add ice and shake.
Rim glass with lime juice and Tajin.
Add ice and strain into glass.
Garnish & enjoy!

*Strawberry Jalapeño Purée:
1/2 jalapeño, add more for extra heat
5-6 Strawberries
1 Cup Water
Blend & strain
(I also like to add the juice of 1 lime)

Xoxo, cheers!
