Method
Cocktail
- 1
Muddle jalapeño
In a cocktail shaker, place 3 slices of fresh jalapeño. Add the simple syrup and gently muddle 4–6 times to release aromatic oils and a touch of heat without pulverizing the pepper.

Combine ingredients
Add 2 oz Gran Centenario Reposado tequila, 1 oz passion fruit purée, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz egg white (if using) into the shaker with the muddled jalapeño.

Dry shake
Seal the shaker and dry shake vigorously (without ice) for 10–15 seconds to emulsify the egg white and integrate the passion fruit.

Shake with ice
Add 1 cup of ice to the shaker and shake hard for 12–15 seconds until well chilled and slightly frothy.
- 5
Double strain
Double strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or rocks glass (over fresh ice if preferred) using a fine mesh strainer to catch jalapeño bits and seeds for a smooth drink.
Garnish
- 6
Float a single jalapeño slice on top and garnish with half a passion fruit or a lime wheel on the rim. Serve immediately.
