Jalapeno's Revenge

Mrs. had a birthday party last weekend. She requested that we serve a drink called "Jalapeno's Revenge", which she found on the Jose Cuervo website, I think.

Anyway, the ratios are:

4: silver tequila which has been infused with jalapeno
3: blood orange juice
2: triple sec
1: lime juice

I did it this way:

Pour a bottle of tequila plus another splash (to bring the total up to 800ml from 750ml) into a pitcher. Add a sliced jalapeno. Let that sit for a three hours.

Scoop out the jalapeno slices, put them in a bowl on the side for garnish, if people want them.

Add 600ml of blood orange juice (about 8 oranges), 400ml of triple sec, and 200ml of lime juice (about 8 limes).

Or: 1 bottle tequila (750ml=25oz), 18oz OJ, 12 oz triple sec, 6 oz lime juice.

Stir it up. Drink with ice.

Recipe said to serve in salt-rimmed glasses. We chose not to.

It's just a bit spicy, not really hot - as confirmed by our spice-averse friend. And very tasty. Though it would probably work fine with regular OJ, the fresh blood orange juice gives the drink a nice deep pink/orange color. It was delicious, as you might suspect. I'm not sure if what I felt in the morning was the jalapeno's revenge, or the champagne's revenge, or the beer's revenge, or the red wine's revenge, or... But something set me up the bomb. Use with caution.
