Instructions
- for the jalapeno mezcal: Pour mezcal into a pint jar or other glass container. Add jalapeno slices and cover. Refrigerate overnight and then remove jalapeno slices. Leave jalapenos in longer for a spicier mezcal. This will keep well in the refrigerator for a couple months.
- for the chili salt rim: In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients. Transfer to a small plate. Run the cut side of a fresh lime wedge around the rim of a 10 ounce glass. Dip wet rim into chili salt. Set glass aside. Chili salt will keep well in an airtight container for a few months.
- to create the jalapeno mezcal margarita: To your prepared glass, add jalapeno mezcal, lime juice, Cointreau, orange bitters, and honey. Stir vigorously with a mini whisk until honey is incorporated. Add chopped ice to fill glass and a give a little stir to combine. Garnish with a lime wedge and jalapeno slice. Enjoy!
