Low-Sugar Jalapeño Margarita Recipe

Ingredients

  1. 2 ounce jalapeño-infused tequila (I used Tanteo)
    1/2 ounce triple sec (I used Cointreau L’unique)
    1/2 ounce sugar-free simple syrup (I used Swoon)
    1 ounce fresh lime juice (about the juice of one whole lime)

Directions

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker with about 3/4 of a cup of ice.
  2. Pour in jalapeño-infused tequila, triple sec, and sugar-free simple syrup.
  3. Using a citrus press, squeeze the juice of two halves of a lime into the cocktail shaker.
  4. Shake well, then pour margarita and ice into a cocktail glass (I prefer a rocks glass).

Optional:

  • Rub rim of glass with lime wedge, then salt the rim.
  • Replace Tanteo's Jalapeño Tequila with its Chipotle or Habanero tequilas for another spicy variation.
