IngredientsĤ5ml jalapeño-infused Patrón Silver (see note)ġ5ml fruit or vegetable puree (blood orange, mango or fresh beet) Just don't use that free hand to text your ex. Here, you can cut out the middle man and get the spicy kick straight from your drink. Perhaps that's why we have two hands, so we can hold a margarita in one and a taco in the other. We all know how well a classic margarita pairs with spicy food. Shake hard and double-strain into a chilled coupette. Add all other ingredients in and add ice. Muddle pineapple in the bottom of a cocktail shaker.
Instead, conjure those island vibes with this sweet concoction.
But there's no need to cry - that's how you get sunscreen in your eyes. Have your plans to escape to a tropical oasis been thwarted by border closures? We get it. Want to leave it to the pros? Patrón is also giving away complimentary margaritas for the entire month of February at a bunch of bars around the city. Whether you want to make the most of seasonal produce or test your tolerance for chilli, these tipples will do the trick. So, to celebrate International Margarita Day on February 22, we've teamed up with Patrón tequila to share these three recipes that'll help you mix things up.
But, like when reading a good crime fiction novel or watching the latest bingeable TV show, we love an unexpected twist from time to time. Since you're reading this, we bet you love sippin' a cheeky marg - on a hot day, after a long day at work or when you're celebrating something special.
