Cinco de Mayo 2018

Cinco De Mayo Day 🇲🇽 🌵

My first creation of the day is my inclusion for Joe’s & Ryan’s @chemistry.cocktails@ryan333finch #exoticmargarita challenge. The guys have challenged us to create an exotic margarita with only 3 or Maybe 4 ingredients. .

So here is what I came up with! I purchased an exotic cocktail fruit tin from my local Chinese Grocery store. I soaked the fruit in Reposado tequila with jalapeño for 24 hours.

I then used the tequila and residual juice from the fruit and mixed it with some Blue Curaçao And fresh lime Juice.

I retained the fruit for the garnish and drizzled some passionfruit over the fruit.

Result: A spicy exotic fruit salad margarita.
