Spicy Cajun Margaritas for a Party

Jalapeño simple syrup:

• In a small saucepan, combine 1.5 cups of water and 1.5 cups of granulated sugar.
• Slice the jalapeños and add them to the saucepan.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved.
• Remove from heat and let it cool. Once cooled, strain out the jalapeños and discard them, reserving the jalapeño-infused simple syrup.
• Can be made 2-3 days in advance and kept in a sealed container at room temperature.

Margarita mix:

• In a large pitcher, combine the lime juice, tequila, triple sec, and 1 cup of the jalapeño simple syrup.
• Stir well to ensure all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
• Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or spiciness by adding more jalapeño simple syrup if desired.
• Add sliced fruit, ice and jalapeños to the pitcher.

Rim the glasses:

• Take a shallow plate or bowl and add Louisiana Fish Fry Cajun Seasoning.
• Take each cup and rim the outer edge by running a lime slice along the rim. Coat in Cajun Seasoning by rotating cup until covered.

Assemble and serve:

• Fill each rimmed margarita glass with ice cubes.
• Pour the margarita mix into the glasses.
• If you like an extra kick, add a jalapeño slice to each glass.
• Stir gently to combine the flavors.
• Serve the Spicy Cajun Margs immediately and enjoy!
