1. To make caliente tequila:
2. Place Japanese chile pods in a 1 liter bottle chosen tequila. Set aside and wait for 3 weeks. Note: The longer it macerates the spicier the tequila gets. This tequila makes great Bloody Marias or for the daring person a great shot.

4. Combine water and sugar in a pot and simmer until sugar has dissolved. Chill liquid and then add lime juice.
5. To make caliente margarita:
6. Combine the tequilas, triple sec, sweet n sour mix, and orange juice and stir. Serve over ice with a salted rim and a chile for garnish.
