Texas Ranchwater with Tapatio Tequila
- 2oz Tapatio Reposado
- 1 oz fresh squeezed Lime juice
- A dash of agave nectar
- Top off with Topo Chico Mineral Water
Spicey Pineapple Marg with Pardre Azul Tequila
- 1.5 oz Padre Reposado Tequila
- .5 oz orange liqueur
- 1 oz Agave Nectar
- 1 oz Lime Juice
5. oz orange juice
Directions: Whisk Hot Sauce and orange juice in a small bowl; set aside. Mix salt and chili powder on a small plate or shallow bowl. Wet rims of 2 large margarita glasses with a lime wedge. Dip glasses in the salt mixture to coat. Fill glasses with ice; set aside. Fill the cocktail shaker with ice. Add pineapple and lime juice, agave, tequila, and triple sec; shake until well mixed and chilled. Place a bar spoon upside-down over one cocktail glass. Carefully pour half of the Hot Sauce mixture over the back of a spoon, allowing the mixture to settle in the bottom of the margarita. Repeat with the remaining margarita and Hot Sauce mixture. Garnish with lime wheels and fresh pineapple slices to serve, if desired.
