Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glasses

    Start by rimming your serving glasses with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly.

    Slice the Jalapeño

    Carefully slice the jalapeño in half, removing the seeds if you prefer a milder taste. Slice each half into thin rounds.

Blending the Margarita

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a blender, combine the sliced jalapeño, fresh lime juice, Exotico tequila, and agave syrup.

  2. 4

    Blend Smooth

    Blend the ingredients on high speed until smooth and well combined. Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness with more agave if desired.

Serving
