Ingredients<\/h3>\n

(For 2 servings)<\/p>\n

3 oz of your favorite tequila<\/p>\n

4 oz Fresh-Squeezed Grapefruit Juice from our Heritage Grapefruit<\/a><\/p>\n

2 oz Fresh Lime Juice<\/p>\n

4 teaspoons Simple Syrup<\/p>\n

4 fresh, sliced Jalapeno rings
\n(1\/8 to 1\/4 inch thick)<\/p>\n

Ice<\/p>\n

2 tsp Chili Powder<\/p>\n

2 Tbs Kosher Salt<\/p>\n

1 Lime Wedge<\/p>\n

Directions<\/h3>\n

Put tequila into a glass jar and add the jalapeno slices. Cover and refrigerate for 1-hour. Remove the jalapeno slices and set aside for use as garnish. Mix the chili powder and kosher salt in a small bowl, transfer to a small plate, and set aside.<\/p>\n

Rim the glasses with the lime wedge, then dip the juice-coated glass rims into the chili-salt mixture on the plate to coat the rims. Fill glasses with ice. Combine jalapeno-infused tequila, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and simple syrup into a cocktail shaker and add ice. Shake thoroughly, then strain into the chili-salt rimmed glasses of ice. Add one or two of the jalapeno slices as a garnish and enjoy.<\/p>\n

Tips<\/h3>\n

For a less spicy drink, reduce jalapeno infusion time to 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

Quadruple the ingredients and make ahead in a pitcher to be ready for a party.<\/p>\n
