Method

Infusion Process

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Slice the fresh jalapeños in half, removing the seeds for less heat if desired. Rinse and pat dry the cilantro.

  2. 2

    Infuse the Tequila

    In a large, clean glass jar or container, combine the blanco tequila, sliced jalapeños, and cilantro. Seal the jar tightly.

  3. 3

    Let it Infuse

    Allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for 24 to 48 hours, shaking gently every few hours to mix the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Strain the Mixture

    After the infusion period, strain the tequila through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a clean bottle to remove the solids.

Mixing the Drink

  1. 5

    Prepare the Cocktail

    In a shaker, combine 60 ml of the infused tequila, 60 ml of lime juice, and 30 ml of agave syrup. Fill with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Strain the cocktail into a glass filled with ice. Garnish with lime wedges, fresh cilantro leaves, and jalapeño slices on top.
