Yeah..... that was coming from the guy who COVETS my pepper-infused tequilas.
Teeth hurt? Why are they colder? Oh you mean frozen, okay. A marg is not frozen, a frozen marg is frozen. 
I guess opening a jar of Pace salsa and adding a piece of a bhut wouldnt exactly be homemade , i guess i'll have to step aside on this challenge too. But i sure look foward to the receipes you folks whip up. Good luck everyone.
Why can't you make salsa??? Don't they sell tomatoes, onions, and limes in NY?
Pico de gallo, the simplest salsa, tomatoes, onions, jalapenos... not entering because you can't chop some veggies is a cop out!
Must be a joke about the Pace salsa, this is a cooking contest so... old man... hope you are in!

Naw...I don't dig on sour stuff...makes my teeth feel like sandpaper. My idea of a margarita would be tequila with lime juice and habanero...wait...that actually sounds good...
Um okay.
Lunch Box, I posted a recipe in the Chili drinks thread. jalapeño, lime juice and tequila. Yesterday I tried it with a Habanero... hmmm I liked the flavor, I was getting little hints of peach, obviously they were peach habs.
But I think I like it with jap's better. There's more meat in a jap so when you muddle the lime and jap, there's more pepper flavor. They're both good tho, cuz I'm feelin' it this morning! seriously, try it!
I'm calling it the "Grito Verde" (Green Scream)....
1/2 jap
1/2lime
muddle
2 oz tequila (el Jimador Silver)
shake w/ ice
strain, pour, drink!
P.S. Can't wait for September, to do my first TD!!!

Sounds good...too bad Texas law dictates liquor stores are closed on Sundays. Welcome to the Bible-Belt.
LB, It's the same here in Washington, but we can still get beer and wine at the grocery stores. Our liquor store has been running these gift boxes of elJimador gold that comes with 2 glasses in the box. really cool glasses, I have 8 of them now....
FD4, Nope, (ss) the lime and the Jap flavors really comes thru. not bitter at all, it's kind of like a 'poor-man's' margarita. You can play with the heat by removing/leaving the seeds, I recommend leaving them, but like I say, Grito Verde!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never use simple syrup, either. I suspect Americans in general are more addicted to sugar than they realize - it's not always really needed, you just have to figure out the right balance of other ingredients for your personal tastes.
