Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Infuse the Tequila
Slice the habanero pepper in half lengthwise and remove the seeds to reduce heat (if desired). Place the habanero halves in a jar and pour in the blanco tequila. Seal the jar tightly and let it infuse in a cool, dark place for about 24 hours, tasting periodically until it reaches your desired level of spiciness.

Prepare the Cucumber
Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Cut it into thin slices or small cubes, depending on your presentation preference. Set aside a few slices for garnishing.

Mix the Drink
In a pitcher, combine the infused tequila (after straining out the habanero), agave syrup, and limonada. Stir well to ensure the agave syrup is fully dissolved.
