Celeb pals Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake recently tried a new spicy cocktail recipe named after the Tonight Show host.
The recipe is quite simple and requires few ingredients. The cocktail is a unique blend of sweet and spicy elements and mixes two ingredients on opposite ends of the spectrum -- maple syrup and jalapeno peppers. The distinct mixture is balanced out by tequila. The preparation is rather easy and begins with infusing a bottle of premium tequila Sauza 901 with four finely chopped jalapeno peppers and a teaspoon of agave. Stir the mixture and let it sit for maximum one hour.
In a glass, mix two parts Jalapeno-Infused Sauza, one part maple syrup and two dashes of two Angostura Orange Bitters. Slowly stir in the ice, and your very own Fallon cocktail is done.
