The Devil Margarita is a spicy twist on the classic margarita cocktail, typically incorporating ingredients like jalapeΓ±o or other hot peppers for a fiery kick. Hereβs a recipe for a Devil Margarita:
Ingredients:
2 oz (60ml) tequila (silver or blanco)
1 oz (30ml) triple sec or orange liqueur
1 oz (30ml) freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 oz (15ml) simple syrup (adjust to taste)
2-3 slices of fresh jalapeΓ±o (adjust to desired spiciness)
Salt or chili salt for rimming the glass
Ice cubes
Instructions:
Rim a rocks glass with salt or chili salt by running a lime wedge around the rim and dipping it into the salt mixture.
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the slices of jalapeΓ±o to release their flavor and spice. Be cautious with the amount of jalapeΓ±o you use, as it can make the drink very spicy.
Add tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
Fill the shaker with ice cubes.
Shake the ingredients vigorously until well chilled, about 15-20 seconds.
Strain the mixture into the prepared rocks glass over fresh ice.
Optionally, garnish with a slice of jalapeΓ±o or a lime wedge.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Devil Margarita!
Feel free to adjust the level of spiciness by adding more or fewer jalapeΓ±o slices, or even trying different types of hot peppers based on your preference. This cocktail is perfect for those who enjoy a bit of heat in their drinks! Cheers!
