This summer, I wanted to try experimenting with different variations of margaritas. This was one of the first I made. I wanted to go spicy and also incorporate cucumber, a vegetable I hate on its own but LOVE in cocktails.

Editor's Note

A fresh and spicy modern margarita riff that relies on muddling fresh cucumber and jalapeño for its vegetal kick. The Tajín rim adds an extra layer of savory heat.
