Couture Cocktails
Cocktails created with fresh ingredients are much tastier than those made from a mix. This is particularly true for margaritas and this one is delicious, especially if you like a kick to your cocktails. You can adjust amount of jalepeno’s to your liking.
- Cilantro Jalepeno Margarita
- ½ oz cilantro syrup {1 cup water, 1 cup sugar heated until sugar is dissolved. Steep a cup of cilantro leaves in syrup for 10 minutes, cool and store for up to a month in refrigerator. Or use simple syrup you have on hand, heat and add cilantro}
- juice of 1 lime {plus more for garnish}
- 2oz of good quality tequila
- fresh jalapeño strips { plus more for garnish}
- salt to rim glass
- ice
- cilantro sprigs for garnish
- Rim glass with lime than dip in salt. Fill glass and cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add cilantro syrup, juice of lime, tequila and jalapeno strips to shaker – shake vigorously for at least 20 seconds. Pour through shaker strainer into salt rimmed glass and garnish with lime wedge, jalapeno ring(s) and cilantro sprig. This makes one 4 oz cocktail – adjust to glass size and amount of margarita consumption necessary.
