The Easiest Spicy Margarita Recipe
This spicy margrita recipe is easy to make and the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and tart!
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz Lime Juice
- 1.5 oz Tripe Sec
- 3 oz Jalopeno Infused Tequila
- 0.5 tbsp Agave
- 1 lime Cut into wedges for garnish
- 0.5 Jalopeno Cut into thin rounds for garnish
- Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Seasoning blend or Salt
Instructions
Rim the Glass:
- Use a lime wedge to coat the rim of your glass.
- Pour a layer of Trader Joe’s Chile Lime Seasoning blend (or Salt) onto a small plate.
- Dip the rim of the glass into the seasoning, rotating until it is coated.
Make the Spicy Margarita:
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes halfway.
- Add tequila, triple sec, lime juice, agave nectar, and jalapeño slices.
- Close tightly and shake vigorously!
- Put ice cubes in your rimmed glass and strain drink into glass.
- Garnish with lime and jalapeños (optional)
Notes
- Instead of using a Jalapeño infused Tequila, make your own! Simply add half a large jalapeño into your regular tequila for a few hours then pull it out. So Easy!
- Make variations using mangos or your favorite fruit. The fruit will add natural sweetness to balance the tart taste of lime.
- If you do not like it spicy, skip adding the jalapeño slices to your shaker.
