Directions

Mix together the lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, simple syrup, cucumber and jalapenos in a large pitcher. Chill for at least 1 hour (the longer the margarita sits, the more the cucumber and jalapeno flavors infuse into the drink).

Serve over ice in salt-rimmed glasses, if desired.

    I just returned from Savannah, GA. Where I tasted the best jalapeño margarita so when I returned home I was determined to find a recipe for that cocktail. I must admit that this cucumber jalapeño margarita is even tastier! The freshness of the cucumber mixed with the subtle hot taste of the jalapeño took this drink over the top. Love it!

    This is SUCH a FABULOUS cocktail! Just made it this past weekend for friends while we were bbq-ing in some unseasonably warm weather. Used triple sec orange instead of Grand Marnier to cut down the price. Super easy to just combine the liquids, slice a jalapeno in half and add a few cucumber slices. Only thing is: You may need to triple, quadruple... this recipe depending on how much you drink! Takes a lot of limes to come up with the juice, too. This is now going to be one of my go-to drinks.
