Im on a cucumber juice in cocktails kick lately so naturally it was time to use it in a margarita with this version of a Cucumber Jalapeo Cilantro Margarita. I LOVE THIS MARGARITA!
This Cucumber Jalapeo Cilantro Margarita is my new favorite margarita. I love the freshness of the cucumber juice, the herbal notes from cilantro and the spicy kick of the jalapeo. Be careful with the jalapeo, I found one slice is plenty, you dont want to overwhelm the entire drink. And, if youre one of those people that hate cilantro, well, just leave it out! Although I cant tell you what that would taste like cuz I didnt make it that way ??
