Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Infuse the Tequila

    Slice the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove the seeds for less heat if desired. Place the halved jalapeños in a glass jar and pour the tequila over them. Seal the jar tightly and let it infuse for 24 to 48 hours in a cool, dark place.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cocktail

    Once the tequila is infused, strain out the jalapeños and transfer the infused tequila back to the bottle. In a shaker, combine 60 ml of the jalapeño-infused tequila, 30 ml of lime juice, and 15 ml of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake well.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice and garnish with lime wedges. Enjoy your Naked Jalapeño cocktail!
