I’ve been getting more creative with my drink mixtures lately which I think is because I have been focusing so much on new recipes and its really opening up my creative side! Yes this isn’t a brand new never heard of drink, but we were making tacos one night and had some mango that Nolan made into a salsa so I thought “oh yes a spicy mango marg would be amazing right now” so I made one and here it is. Its delicious and actually spicy, which depending on your jalapenos might not be. Some jalapenos taste like grass and some are actually spicy so be careful! I little trick I learned is that if you want a spicy pepper, buy the ones that have well curved stems. Try it out and let me know if you get a spicy one. For now, make this cocktail and imagine being on the beach xoxo.
