Candied Jalapeño Margarita

May 03 2023, by Recipe courtesy of Gesus Palomino

This version of a classic margarita packs a spicy surprise with a tipple of Candied Jalapeño Cocktail Mix. Made by Georgia-based business owner Clark Stallings of Gesus Palomino, the Candied Jalapeño Cocktail Mix is a liquified version of the candied jalapeños Stallings used to preserve with his mother every year. 

The sweet heat from the peppers complements the fiery tequila in the margarita recipe. But don't limit it to just drinks: The cocktail mix can also double as a marinade for meats or as a flavoring in salad dressings.
