<p>For the past six to eight months we have been doing taco Tuesday at home. I try to make different variations each week from ground beef to chicken, fajitas, pork belly and even fish. Matt my boyfriend is in charge of the drinks so we are always trying something different.</p>



<p>For the past month or so he&#8217;s been making jalapeño margaritas and honestly, they&#8217;re so good, very little sugar and I could probably sip them all day long. I have a very strange allergy to the sweet and sour mixes for regular margaritas, one time I almost ended up in the hospital because of how painful it was to me. But hey, I still love margaritas and he managed to make this new mix that don&#8217;t upset my stomach or make me feel sick.</p>



<p>I asked Matt if I could share his recipe and he said yes, so here it is&#8230; I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.</p>



<p>This recipe is for two drinks but double it or triple it if you plan to make a pitcher, we like to shake the drink but you can just stir all the ingredients if making a large batch</p>



<p><strong>What you’ll need:</strong></p>



<p>Cocktail shaker<br>Measuring cup &; spoons<br>Knife and cutting board<br>Muddler<br>2 short glasses</p>
