Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz tequila
  • 1 oz coconut milk
  • 0.75 oz lime juice
  • 0.5 oz Cointreau
  • 0.5 oz agave syrup
  • 2-3 jalapeño slices
  • Tajín for rimming
  • Lime wedge for rimming
  • Jalapeño slice for garnish

Instructions

  • Prepare the Glass: Run a lime wedge along the rim of a rocks glass, then dip it into Tajín for a spicy, citrusy edge. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
  • Muddle the Jalapeño: In a shaker, combine tequila and jalapeño slices. Muddle gently to release the spice.
  • Shake: Add coconut milk, lime juice, Cointreau, and agave syrup to the shaker. Fill with ice and shake until well chilled.
  • Strain and Serve: Strain into the prepared glass over fresh ice.
  • Garnish: Finish with a fresh jalapeño slice for an extra pop of heat.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • For a spicier kick, let the tequila and jalapeños infuse for a few minutes before shaking.
  • Use full-fat coconut milk for a creamier texture and a richer flavor.
  • Shake well to ensure the coconut milk fully blends into the cocktail, preventing separation.
