Ingredients
  

  • 4 Ounces Tequila
  • 4 Ounces Cointreau
  • 3 Ounces Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice
  • 2 Ounce Habanero-Lime Infused Tequila see note
  • 2 Ounces Mango Juice
  • Ice optional
  • Coarse Salt optional

Instructions
 

Making the Habanero Lime Infused Tequila

  • Add ⅓ of a lime cut into slices and 2 habaneros (halved and seeds and stems removed) to 1 750ml bottle of silver tequila. Let infuse at least 24 hours. The longer it infuses the stronger it gets. Depending on the bottle you may need to remove a small amount of tequila to get them to fit.

Mixing the Margarita

  • Combine the tequilas, Cointreau, lime juice, and mango juice in a cocktail shaker with some ice and shake to combine. Serve straight up or on the rocks.
