Once the tequila has reached the desired spice level, strain the mixture, discard the jalapenos, and place the tequila back into the mason jars, or whatever bottle you want to store the tequila in. The choice, however, is yours! The longer the tequila and jalapenos sit, the spicier it will be. I infused the tequila for 2 days, before I thought it was spicy enough, but we, um, taste tested after 24 hours. Set in a cool, dark place (like your pantry) for at least one day, but up to a week. Screw the lid(s) on and shake for thirty seconds. Pour an entire bottle of tequila on top of the jalapenos. Slice three whole jalapenos and place in the bottom of a jar(s) – I used two large mason jars. Start by infusing your tequila with jalapenos.

I loved it so much that, naturally, I just had to recreate it at home □ It’s a jalapeno margarita that has jalapeno infused tequila, a special blend of citrus juices, a splash of triple sec, and pineapple! I love it, because margaritas are my favorite, obviously, and it makes your lips all tingling from the spicy tequila. We haven’t found one as good as Plaza Garibaldi, BUT I have a new favorite margarita by another Mexican restaurant in Seattle. By that, I mean, we’ll try a different Mexican restaurant. What can I say? We’re creatures of habit!Īlthough we love our routine, every once and a while, we’ll mix it up a bit. Probably, because Trevor and I, yes, once again, are celebrating with our Friday Night – Mexican Night. That song is going to be stuck in your head all day long now…I’m sorry, but I’m just so happy that it’s Friday! I’m always happy for Friday, just like I’m sure the rest of the world is, but I don’t know, I just feel extra happy today.
