Habanero Coconut Margarita

Habanero Coconut Margarita

In my work life, doing chemistry experiments is just part of the daily grind. So I had so much fun putting “science” into this Habanero Coconut Margarita recipe. After completing a tasting with a test group (aka the girls), it was determined that all that trial and error paid off to a delicious cocktail.

It’s important to note that the simple syrup for this margarita is key. The longer you let the Habanero peppers “steep” the spicier the cocktail. Adjust the time to your liking, however an hour will give you a decent kick.
