1
Prepare the Glass
Take a lime wedge and rub it around the rim of a margarita glass. Dip the rim into salt to coat it evenly.
2
Muddle Jalapeños
In a cocktail shaker, add the jalapeño slices. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the jalapeños to release their flavor.
3
Combine Ingredients
Add the tequila, fresh lime juice, triple sec, agave syrup, and ice cubes to the shaker with the muddled jalapeños.
4
Shake It Up
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well mixed and chilled.
5
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared margarita glass filled with fresh ice, if desired. Garnish with a lime wedge.
