A jalapeño margarita with homemade jalapeño infused tequila!

These jalapeno margaritas are strong, have no added sugar, and really pack a punch! showmetheyummy.com #tgif #cocktails #jalapeno #margarita #happyhour #drinks

Ingredients

Jalapeno Infused Tequila

  • 1 (750 ml) bottle reposado tequila
  • 3 jalapeños sliced

Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita

  • 4 pineapple chunks
  • 1 oz pineapple juice
  • 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/2 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz triple sec
  • 4 oz jalapeno infused tequila

Instructions

Jalapeno Infused Tequila

  • Place jalapenos into the bottom of a large sealable jar.
  • Pour in tequila.
  • Seal and shake for 30 seconds.
  • Set in a cool, dark place for at least one day, but up to a week (the longer it sits, the spicier it gets).
  • Once the tequila has reached the desired spice level, strain the mixture, discard the jalapenos, and pour the tequila back into the sealable jar.

Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita

  • Muddle pineapple in the bottom of a cocktail shaker.
  • Fill the shaker 1/4 of the way up with ice, then pour in pineapple juice, lime juice, lemon juice, triple sec, and jalapeno infused tequila.
  • Shake for 30-60 seconds.
  • Strain into ice filled glasses and enjoy!

Notes

It's great for one of two, but also for a crowd. This would be a good option for Super Bowl Sunday! Make a pitcher, but don't fill with ice, store in the fridge, and let people pour their own margaritas!
