Review:

By the end of 2023 it was clear that the Spicy Margarita was going to be one of the big cocktails of 2024. Its popularity and origin are thanks to Soho House's Picante de la Casa, created in 2012 by Chris Ojeda of Soho House, West Hollywood as a simplification of another 'House' cocktail, the Margarita Picante from nearby Soho Beach House Miami. (Picante means 'spicy' in Spanish, Portuguese and Italian).
