Pepper Jelly Daiquiri
by Thomas Kelly on Apr 17, 2015
Pepper jelly is an ideal cocktail ingredient. Thinned out to a syrup consistency, it can replace simple syrup in many of your favorite recipes. We’re particularly fond of pairing it with rum, like in this take on a classic daiquiri.
Pepper Jelly Daiquiri
Makes 1 cocktail
- ½ ounce pepper jelly
- 2 ounces dark rum
- ¾ ounce lime juice
In a small container, heat the pepper jelly with ½ ounce of water in a microwave for 30 seconds, then stir to combine. Let cool.
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the pepper jelly, rum and lime juice and shake well until frost forms on the outside of the glass. Strain into a chilled coupe, and serve.
