| 2 slice | Red chili pepper (jalapeño/fresno chili (10,000 SHU) deseeded) |
| 2 fl oz | Patrón Reposado tequila |
| 1/2 fl oz | Apple Schnapps liqueur |
| 1 fl oz | Apple juice/apple cider (cloudy & unsweetened) |
| 1/2 fl oz | Lime juice (freshly squeezed) |
| 1/6 fl oz | Monin Pure Cane Syrup (65.0°brix, equivalent to 2:1 rich syrup) |
Garnish:
Small red chilli (warn drinker not to eat)
How to make:
Lightly MUDDLE (just press) chilli pepper in base of shaker to release its flavour. (If you muddle hard then the finished cocktail will be overly spicy). Add other ingredients, SHAKE with ice and fine strain into chilled glass.
Review:
A hint of chilli heat adds interest to an Apple Margarita, creating a full flavoured contemporary classic.
