SPICY BLACKBERRY MARGARITAS

These Spicy Blackberry Margaritas are my new favorite. Just the right amount of spice, and such a vibrant and pretty color. Love at first sip.

SPICY BLACKBERRY MARGARITAS

INGREDIENTS

• 2 1/2 cups fresh blackberries
• 1 4.5 ounce can chopped Old El Paso green chiles
• 1 cup lime juice
• 3 ounces 2 shots blackberry brandy
• 2 1/2 cups orange juice
• 3/4 cup good quality tequila
• 3 tablespoons agave nectar or more to taste
• Coarse sea salt or salt flakes and chili powder for rim
• blackberries and lime wedges for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the lime juice, blackberries, and green chiles in a small bowl. Using a muddler or immersion blender, muddle/blend until fully combined. The smoother the better.
2. Pour the blackberry mixture through a fine mesh strainer and remove the seeds. For me, the mixture was relatively thick so I pressed it through using a spoon to get all the juice out.
3. Pour the juice into a pitcher, followed by the blackberry brandy, orange juice, tequila, and agave. Stir to fully combine.
4. Combine sea salt and chili powder (equal parts) on a plate. Dip the rim of each glass in water or lime juice and then submerge in the salt/chili mixture.
5. Fill each glass with ice and then pour in the margaritas.
6. Garnish with blackberries and lime wedges. Enjoy!
