Nothing tastes better than tequila and jalapeno; the cucumber adds a freshness that helps to mute the jalapeno’s bite. The longer it chills, the more jalapeno and cucumber infuses into the tequila. Serve over ice in a salt-rimmed glass, garnished with cucumber slices.
Ingredients
- ½ cup tequila, or more to taste
- ½ cup fresh lime juice
- ¼ cup orange liqueur
- ¼ cup simple syrup
- 1 jalapeno pepper, halved and seeded
- 4 thin slices cucumber, or more to taste
- 4 wedges lime
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt, or as needed
- ice, as needed
- 4 slices cucumber
Directions
Step 1
Stir tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and simple syrup together in a pitcher with a lid; add jalapeno pepper and thin cucumber slices. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Step 2
Run a wedge of lime along the rim of each of four pint glasses. Spread kosher salt onto a flat plate; press glass rims into salt to coat. Fill glass with ice and pour margarita over the ice. Garnish with cucumber slice.
