Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapeño

    Slice the jalapeño pepper in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds for a milder flavor or leave them in for more heat. Muddle the jalapeño halves with simple syrup in the bottom of a cocktail shaker to release their flavor.

  2. 2

    Mix the Base Ingredients

    Add tequila, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup to the cocktail shaker containing the muddled jalapeño. Fill the shaker with ice and secure the lid.

Shaking and Serving

  1. 3

    Shake the Mixture

    Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  2. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into a salt-rimmed glass filled with ice. To rim the glass, rub a lime wedge around the rim and dip it into salt before pouring in the cocktail.

  3. 5

    Garnish and Enjoy

    Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy your spicy Jalapeño Margarita!
