This savory concoction is the classic accompaniment to a shot of good tequila.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Lime juice
  • 6 oz Orange juice
  • 6 oz Grapefruit juice
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
  • 15 oz Tomato juice
  • 2 oz Tabasco
  • 1 Jalapeño pepper, halved (with seeds)

Steps

  1. Add all ingredients into a pitcher and stir until salt dissolves.

  2. Let stand for 15 to 30 minutes, then remove and discard the jalapeño.

  3. (The longer the jalapeño infuses, the spicier the Sangrita will be.).

  4. Serve as accompaniment to shot of tequila.

  5. Store in refrigerator.
