Haven’t made this yes but when I do I will add the cheese queso and pretzels! Thanks for the great idea!
This is delicious!
These definitely have a kick to them. After each taste a slow long burn is noticed. I’m from Texas and use to eating a lot of spicy Mexican food with jalapenos. I marinated my tequila with one jalapeno for about 36 hours before straining. I like this cocktail’s hot finish. It balances out the over sweetness of the orange juice & grenadine. With it’s strong heat, I think cheese queso dip would be a great accompaniment for this cocktail. Especially if you use pretzels instead of taco chips for a little something different.
I am going to make this too. Sounds wonderful.
After seeing this episode, I immediately grabbed my tequila, and a jalapeno to start the infusion. Making this TONIGHT!! 🙂
I am soooo making this tonight..will let you kmow how it comes out.
