Ingredients
- 2 oz Tequila
- 1 oz Fresh lime juice
- 0.5 oz Agave syrup
- 0.5 oz Orange liqueur (e.g., Cointreau)
- 2 pieces Fresh jalapeño slices
- 1 cup Ice cubes

Instructions
On a small plate, spread the salt. Rub the rim of a rocks glass with the lime wedge, then dip the rim into the salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the fresh jalapeño slices with the fresh lime juice to release the pepper’s flavor and heat.
Add the tequila, agave syrup, orange liqueur, and ice cubes into the shaker.
Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
Strain the cocktail into the prepared, salt-rimmed glass over fresh ice.
Garnish with a jalapeño slice for a spicy flair and a lime wedge on the rim, if desired.
