INGREDIENTS:


1 oz. Lemonade


1/2 oz. Orange juice 


Handful of diced Cucumber


2 thin slices of Jalapeno


1/2 oz. Fresh Ginger Syrup


1/2 oz. Sweet sour


Fresh Ground Black Pepper


***If you would like to add liquor add 1-1/2 oz. Cachaca or Karma Tequila


 


In a mixing glass, place cucumber, Jalapeno, Ginger syrup and Sweet & Sour and start mudling. Throughout the mudding process, keep checking the level of spiciness and STOP muddling when you feel the spiciness is at the level you will enjoy most. Now, let's add the Triple Sec and Tequila (if you want to add alcohol) and shake it hard for 5 fast seconds. Next, strain and pour into a long drinking glass on the rocks . Before serving, top it off with a little fresh ground black pepper. 


The taste is uniquely refreshing and addictive because each sip leaves your mouth with the tingly sensation from the jalapeno...leaves you thirsty for more!
