Low-Carb Spicy Margarita (Keto, Sugar-Free)
- FOR RIMMING THE GLASS:
- 1 Lemon Wedge
- 1 teaspoon Fine Salt
- 1/8 teaspoons Chili Powder
- 1/8 teaspoons Sweet Paprika
- FOR THE MARGARITA:
- 16 cubes Ice, Divided
- 4 slices Jalapeno (From A Jar), Divided
- 4 Tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
- 2 ounces, fluid Tequila
- 12 drops Liquid Stevia
- 2 sprigs Cilantro For Garnish (optional)
- Run a wedge of lime around the rim of your glasses.
- Mix salt, chili and paprika in a small bowl or ramekin. Place salt mix onto a plate and dip glass rim into the salt mix. Turn glass to coat and repeat with other glass(es).
- Add half the ice to each glass. Place 2 slices of jalapeno and the lime juice into a cocktail shaker. Muddle the jalapeno (I used the end of a wooden spoon).
- Add tequila, stevia and remaining ice and shake to mix. Strain margarita into the rimmed glasses. Add a slice of jalapeno and some cilantro to each for garnish if desired.
- Notes:
- 1. If you like your Low-Carb Margarita to be even more spicy, leave the shaken cocktail to stand for up to 5 minutes. This will allow more spice to develop. Alternatively, add an extra jalapeno slice to the cocktail shaker.
- 2. Add more or less stevia to achieve your desired level of sweetness.
