Updated: Apr 16

As Cinco de Mayo approaches, it's time to start planning the ultimate celebration that will tantalize your taste buds and leave your guests craving for more. At Distiller's Cut Media, we're passionate about crafting unique and unforgettable cocktail experiences, and this year, we've got something truly special for you: our Spicy Barrel-Aged Margarita. Perfect for both bar managers and beverage directors throughout Pennsylvania eager to elevate their cocktail game, as well as home cocktail enthusiasts across the globe looking to impress their guests, this margarita recipe combines the fiery kick of Chacho Barrel Aged Jalapeno Aguardiente with the smooth sophistication of Casa de Reyes Reposado Tequila.


The Recipe: Our Spicy Barrel-Aged Margarita is a delightful fusion of flavors that will ignite your palate and transport you to the heart of Mexico. Here's what you'll need:

  • 2 oz Casa de Reyes Reposado Tequila

  • 1 oz Chacho Barrel Aged Jalapeno Aguardiente

  • 1 oz fresh Lime juice

  • 1 tsp Agave syrup (adjust to taste)

  • 1.5 oz Triple Sec

  • Jalapeno Slices (for muddle)

  • More Jalapeno and Lime slices (for garnish)

  • Salt (optional, for rimming the glass)


The Build:

  1. Rim a rocks glass with salt (optional).

  2. Fill the glass with ice cubes.

  3. In a cocktail shaker, muddle jalapeno slices and combine the Casa de Reyes Reposado Tequila, Chacho Barrel Aged Jalapeno Aguardiente, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup.

  4. Add ice to the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to chill the mixture.

  5. Strain the mixture into the prepared rocks glass over fresh ice.

  6. Garnish with a few slices of jalapeno for an extra kick.

  7. Optionally, you can also garnish with a lime wheel.

  8. Enjoy your spicy barrel-aged margarita!


Why This Margarita Stands Out: What sets our Spicy Barrel-Aged Margarita apart is the carefully curated combination of ingredients. Casa de Reyes Reposado Tequila brings a depth of flavor with its smooth, oak-aged profile, while the Chacho Barrel Aged Jalapeno Aguardiente adds a bold and spicy kick that lingers on the palate. Together, they create a harmonious balance of heat-and-sweet that will leave you craving another sip.
