Ingredients

  • 2 ounces cucumber juice
  • 2 ounces jalapeño infused tequila
  • 1 ounce lime juice
  • 3/4 ounce agave

Instructions

  • The first step to making this absolutely delicious spicy cocktail is infusing the tequila! This doesn’t take long as jalapeño peppers are so potent. Add 3 slices to 2 cups of tequila and let it infuse for a few hours. You can leave it overnight or if you want a less spicy cocktail leave it for an hour. 
  • Next, juice cucumbers! You can do this two ways. If you own a juicer, then do that. If you don’t, blend the cucumbers until liquid then press through sieve. 

Making the Cocktail

  • In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add all the ingredients. Shake for 30 seconds until the cocktail is diluted. 
  • Rim the glass with a mixture of ground cayenne and salt. Add water around the rim and then dip the glass into a plate of salt and ground cayenne. 
  • Fill the glass with ice and strain the cocktail over the ice. 

Notes

Make the jalapeño infused tequila and cucumber juice before and store in the refrigerator. 
1 cucumber can give you about 6-8 ounces of juice.
