PUERTO VALLARTA, Mexico (PRWEB) April 05, 2018 -- Puerto Vallarta’s Velas Vallarta resort shares the recipe for its Cucumber & Habanero Chili Margarita. To complement the drink, Executive Chef Guillermo Carmona offers some recipes from the resort’s Foodies Cantina, a restaurant inspired by a typical Mexican cantina’s food and drinks. Influenced by the city of Vallarta, the Smoked Marlin "La Tia" pays tribute to the fishermen who sail daily to earn their living. They explore the wonders of the Pacific Ocean and the beautiful landscapes from their boats. Perfumed with touches of Oaxaqueño mezcal, the Magret al Mezcal Amores pays homage to the farmers of the Mexican states of Oaxaca, Guerrero and Durango with fresh and fruity textures.

8 oz    Tequila
4 oz    Cointreau
2 oz    Simple syrup
Pinch Tajin Chili (can substitute course sea salt)

½ Cucumber
½ Habanero Chili
4 C Ice

Directions:
Wash all fresh ingredients, peel the cucumber and remove the seeds. Cut the Habanero Chili in half, removing the seeds. Squeeze the limes to make a fresh juice. Mix the ingredients with ice and blend until forming a frozen drink. Rim a glass with salt and Tajin chili, fill with frozen Margarita and enjoy its refreshing taste.
