I have to admit, I have never considered that watermelon and jalapeno might go together in anything. This Watermelon Jalapeno Cocktail brings a little spice to your typical refreshing fruit mixer. Its beautiful and tasty so perfect for having a fun cocktail at events.
Tequila has a distinct bite to it, and it does well with fruit overtones. Its my very favorite alcohol so I may be a bit biased. I enjoy it by itself and in cocktails. This colorful beverage takes a summer staple and gives it a hot new makeover – literally. The watermelon, citrus, and peppy jalapeno are a new flavor experience. This little flavor bomb is worth a try!
