Chef Tom Fraker
1 fresh jalapeño pepper or Hatch Chile Pepper
3 slices fresh ginger, chopped
1 Melissa's Mini Cucumber, ends trimmed, chopped
2 tablespoons Melissa's fresh cilantro, chopped
Ice
3/4 cups tequila
1/2 cup lime juice
1/4 cup Melissa's Organic Blue Agave Syrup
1/2 cup triple sec
Kosher salt
Char the chile pepper, on all sides, on the grill or stove top burner. Remove the stem and chop.
Place the pepper, ginger, cucumber and cilantro into a bowl. Using a spoon or large round handle, mash ("muddle") them to bring out the flavors.
Fill half of a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the salt. Place the cap on the shaker and shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
Rub a lime wedge around the rim of 2 margarita glasses. Pour the kosher salt onto a plate and dip the glasses into the salt to coat the rim.
Pour the drink into the glasses.
