Cocktail Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Jalapeno
Slice the jalapeno peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds if you prefer a milder flavor. For a spicier drink, leave the seeds in.

Infuse the Tequila
In a clean jar, add the sliced jalapenos and pour in the tequila. Seal the jar and let it infuse for at least 1 hour at room temperature, or overnight in the refrigerator for a stronger flavor.

Mix the Margarita
In a cocktail shaker, combine the infused tequila (remove the jalapeno slices), lime juice, and agave syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.
