Over a hot grill, toast the jalapeno until lightly blistered on the outside and fragrant. Slice into 1/4-inch-thick wheels.
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 slices roasted jalapeno, ice and the Homemade Sour
Mix. Muddle, then add the tequila and the juice of 1 lime wedge. Shake. Rim a margarita glass with the wedge of a lime and salt, if using.
Garnish with a lime wheel.
Combine the sugar and 1 1/2 cups water in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer until the sugar dissolves.
Remove from the heat and cool.
Add the lemon and lime juice. Chill until ready to use.
Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz
Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are great choices for Chili. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. The Segura Viudas Brut Reserva Heredad Cava with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.
Segura Viudas Brut Reserva Heredad Cava
Like a rich Chardonnay with bubbles, this limited production Cava rests on an authentic pewter base and comes in a handsome hand-blown bottle emblazoned with a metal crest of the Segura Viudas family. Perfect with pasta drizzled in truffle oil, slow braised meats, cured meat and cheese plates, oysters.
