Chef's Notes

Tips & Notes
Not Spicy Margaritas: For non-spicy grapefruit margarita, omit the jalapeños completely (use regular tequila) or let the tequila infuse with the peppers for less time (about 10-15 minutes instead of 30).
Batch Margaritas: This recipe can easily be doubled, tripled, quadrupled, etc. Mix everything up in a pitcher and it’s ready for a crowd! If you know you’ll make these often, make a big batch of the spicy jalapeño tequila. Cut a whole jalapeño and place it in a whole bottle of tequila to use whenever you want.

My mom LOVES this. Even I enjoy this spicy grapefruit margarita, and I am not a big fan of margaritas.

Carrie Burns ★ 5.0/5

Yeah, I'm considering the big batch for a rooftop happy hour Friday and thinking I may need to put in the jalapenos towards the end since they'll be sitting in there longer. Looks super tasty and refreshing and makes me wish we were back in the 70s where we were last week :p.
