Cocktails with CKC - The Spicy Margarita

The Spicy Margarita 

 

The Spicy Margarita

 

A twist on the classic Margarita, this recipe offers a low sugar alternative with a kick!

 

2 oz blanco tequila (we prefer casamigos)

1 lime

1/2 orange

4 jalapeno coins

Chili Salt  (or sea salt)

1 tsp agave nectar

Pelegrino (or club soda)

 

With a lime wedge, wet the rim of your rocks glass, and salt it with the Chili salt.  Fill the glass with ice and set aside.  Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, the tequila, the juice of your lime and orange, 2 jalapeno coins and the agave nectar.  Shake for 10-20 seconds, and strain into your salted rocks glass, leaving room to finish with a splash of the Pelegrino.  Garnish with a lime wedge and the other two jalapeno coins.  Enjoy!
