Ingredients
- 3/4 cup silver tequila
- 1/4 - 1 whole jalapeño depending on how spicy you want your margarita
- 1/4 cup Grand Marnier
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup simple syrup
- ice
- Salt for the rim along with Lime Wedges and Jalapeno Slices for garnish optional
Instructions
- Assemble your ingredients.
- Pour all of your ingredients into a cocktail shaker over ice.
- Add the amount of jalapeño you want into your cocktail shaker. If you don't have a cocktail shaker, I recommend this one from Amazon.
- Shake it up! Note: The longer you shake, the more time the jalapeño has to be infused into the cocktail, and therefore, the spicier it will be!
- Finally, pour into your favorite cocktail glass with ice and add limes and jalapeño slices for your garnish!

Notes
- To store a Jalapeño Margarita, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To freeze, put the margarita in an ice cube tray for up to a month; simply blend the cubes with a little fresh lime juice when ready to serve.
