Equipment

  • Strain the margarita into the prepared glass.
  • Garnish with a jalapeño wheel and serve immediately for a fiery, refreshing experience.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Adjust the amount of Sriracha based on your heat tolerance. Start with 0.25 oz and increase if you want extra spice.
  • For an even spicier kick, muddle a few slices of jalapeño in the shaker before adding the liquid ingredients.
  • Freshly squeezed lime juice will elevate the flavors and balance the heat.
