Spicy Margaritas
Ordering margaritas at a bar can be a dangerous practice when you live with food allergies. Pre-mixed juices, or cocktail mixes contain all sorts of scary ingredients. You're much better off making a refreshing batch for yourself. This jalapeño margarita has a nice kick and is a great drink for lovers of all things spicy. Welcome the weekend!
