My friends and I used to enjoy a similar drink at a local Mexican restaurant, but they suddenly stopped making it one day. I decided to try recreating it at home with delicious results! Perfect for a Mexican brunch!

Ingredients

  • 1 pinch chili-lime seasoning (such as Tajin®)

  • ice

  • 2 ounces habanero-infused tequila

  • 1 lime wedge

  • 5 ounces grapefruit-flavored soda (such as Fresca®)

Directions

  1. Rim a highball glass with chili-lime seasoning and fill halfway with ice.

  2. Combine tequila, lime juice, and 1 cup ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake for 1 minute. Strain into the glass. Top with grapefruit soda.

Cook's Notes:

My preferred mixer is grapefruit Jarritos, found in the Hispanic section of your grocery store or international market.

To make your own habanero-infused tequila, add 2 to 3 seeded and quartered habanero peppers into one 26-ounce bottle of tequila. Make sure to use gloves. Let sit for 2 to 3 days, then strain.
