Spicy Jalapeño Margaritas

Ingredients

• 3 cups good (plain) tequila
• 1 cup Grand Marnier
• 1.5 cups fresh lime juice
• 1 cup simple syrup (or sub agave syrup to taste)
• ice
• lime & jalapeño slices for garnish
• salt for the glasses, optional
• 1 cup tequila
• ½ a sliced jalapeño

Instructions

1. Make the jalapeño tequila. Add the jalapeño to the tequila and let it sit at room temp for a few hours or up to a day.
2. Remove jalapeños and pour into a small serving glass. Serve on the side so guests can add as much or little spice as they like.
3. Mix together the margarita ingredients.
4. Add a few drops of the spicy tequila, to taste, to finished margaritas. (it's very spicy - start with less, you can always add more)
