Ingredients

1 servings
  • Kosher salt and a lime wedge to rim the glass
  • Ice
  • 2 ounces silver tequila (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice (about 1/2 small/medium orange)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons light agave nectar (add 2 if you prefer a sweeter margarita)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 jalapeño pepper (cut into thin, round slices (use more for more spice))
  • Lime wedges (additional jalapeño slices for serving)

Steps

  1. Rim the glass: Pour a thin layer of salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the top edge of your glass to moisten it, then dip the glass into the salt so that it sticks, tapping all the way around. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.

  2. Fill a small cocktail shaker with additional ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, agave, and jalapeño slices.

  3. Tightly close and shake vigorously for 30 seconds (it's longer than you think). Strain into the rimmed glass. Enjoy immediately, garnished with lime wedges and additional jalapeño slices.
