Ingredients

Sweet & Spicy Rim

  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1 tsp Sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Lime Zest
  • 1/4 tsp Grapefruit Zest
  • 1 Lime quartered for garnish

  • 3/4 cup Grapefruit Juice
  • 4.5 oz Reposado Tequila

Instructions

  • Mix all the ingredients, except the quartered lime, for the sweet and spicy rim together until combined. Then pour on a small saucer.
  • Use one quarter of the lime to wet the rims of three double old fashioned glasses. Then dip the rim of each glass into the sweet and spicy mixture, turning until well coated.
