The Hot Pepper

Jalapeños in Tequila. Many times.

What bourbon are you using?

I was going to do tequila next, I usually get a few bottles around xmas. Do you put lime in with the Jalapenos or just the peppers? I was thinking about putting smoked peppers into the tequila.

I'm using bulliet bourbon with tangerine peel, cherries, and clove. Did the gin 2 ways, one is pear cucumber and star anise, the other is ginger plum oolong loose leaf tea. I want to do a rye and lemon peel too.

You like it spicy huh haha. Can't say I've ever had a high rye bourbon. Might have to acquire some for a taste. So you just toss in dried pods (and whatever else) and just let it sit for awhile?

Lemon rye sounds good. I f**king love rye.

You've got a LOT of catching up to do! ;o)

Yeah fil, just toss fresh or dried ingredients into the liquor. let 'em sit and enjoy.

rye and tequila are my favorites, but I haven't tried infusing them because I don't really buy bottles of that stuff that I want to risk infusing. But Dash, I started thinkin about making a cardamom rye instead so that when I mix it with lemonade it'd be a cardamom lemonade, instead of double lemon. Or stick to the lemon rye and just drink it over ice. Ok I'll do both.

gin is great w cucumber - take your peeler and skin a few stripes on your cuke - then drop the sliced peel in the gin. My favorite is a few cuke peel slices and lime zest.

I did cucumber bosc pear and some star anise in one gin mix. Ginger plum oolong tea in the other.
