Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by rimming your glass with coarse salt. To do this, rub a lime wedge around the rim of the glass and then dip it into the coarse salt until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, fresh lime juice, orange liqueur, agave syrup, and sliced jalapeño. Add ice to the shaker.

  3. 3

    Shake Well

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. If desired, you can double strain to remove the jalapeño slices.

    Garnish and Enjoy

    Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy your New Mexico Margarita!
