Jalapeño Orange Spritzer
Vodka
The Jalapeño Orange Spritzer is like the perfect summer day: bright, with a little heat. This sunburst orange cocktail gets its heat from jalapeño infused vodka. The infused vodka works in harmony (not competition) with orange juice and soda water to create a cocktail worthy of your next summer celebration.
Ingredients
- 8 oz. vodka
- 12 oz. orange juice
- 4 oz. soda water
- 1 large jalapeño pepper, sliced. Reserve a few slices for garnish.
Preparation
- Slice jalapeño pepper. If you want to keep the pepper flavor without adding too much heat, remove the seeds.
- Pour vodka into a container and add the jalapeño slices. Let sit for one day. The longer you let the jalapeños infuse, the stronger the spice level will be.
- Add 2 oz. of the jalapeño-infused vodka, and 3 oz. of orange juice into a shaker with ice. Shake well.
- Pour into a glass and top off with club soda.
- Add a jalapeño slice to garnish.
