by:
Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 1 cup tequila
  • 1 whole hot chile (like Serrano), pierced several times with a knife point
  • 6 medium peaches, peeled, pitted and coarsely chopped
  • ¼ cup agave (plus more to taste)
  • 1 cup orange liqueur, such as Cointreau,
  • 1 cup juice from 4 to 6 limes, reserving a couple of the shells for rubbing rims
  • ¼ cup Kosher salt
Instructions
  1. Pierce chili several times with a knifepoint and drop into tequila; let stand 4 hours and up to a couple of days. Remove and discard.
  2. Puree peaches until smooth in a food processor. Measure out 3 cups for the drink. If there is any remaining puree, reserve for another use. Mix peach puree, agave, orange liqueur, and lime juice. Refrigerate until ready to use. (Can be made several hours ahead.)
  3. When ready to serve, pour salt onto a small plate. Rub the rims of 6 martini-style glasses with a lime shell to moisten. Dip rims into salt. Working in 3 batches, pour ⅓ of the peach mixture and ⅓ cup of the tequilla into a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice cubes and cap with shaker lid. Shake vigorously, pour into prepared glasses, and serve!
