Yummy, We didn’t have tequila so we used vodka…so it was more like a martini – but it is our new favorite drink!
Love this drink! Made this drink for friends of ours and everyone gave it a big thumbs up.
made these for our girls night out in Corpus & these were a HUGE hit!!
I love pomegranite
I have made this drink on a few occassions for many different friends. I have had friends of friends call me up to get the recipe. Just the right amount of sweet with a hot not spicy “kick” to it. AWESOME!
The “BOMB” an excellent refreshing drink with a little kick. This is a absolute must to just kick back and watch the sunset with your wife or friends. It is tasty and will “SNEAK” up on you if not carefull. Our friends brought this to dinner yesterday and it was awsome. the only change that was made was to the habenero which was sliced on 4 sides and the stem removed.
I tried this recipe, and it was simply too spicy for me. Until I tried this drink, I thought I could take alot of heat; I was wrong. Sorry Sunny, I did not like this drink.
This was so good! I didn’t have fresh limes so just used bottled lime juice and I also changed the syrup from 1/2 cup to 1/4 cup because I prefer a drink that isn’t too sweet. This is a refreshing margarita and the habanero syrup added a wonderful flavor.
I just had to try this margarita recipe with a kick. Soooo good! I made my simple syrup using cane sugar and I smashed the habanero before removing it (of course then I had to pick out the seeds, but it added the right amount of spice to the syrup). I used Pom for the juice. The only change I made to the margarita recipe was to reduce the amount of simple syrup I added. I used only 1/4 c. of syrup and the margaritas contain the perfect amount of sweetness. These are in no way too spicy, just a little wake up call at the end of the sip.
