 2 oz watermelon juice
 1 jalapeño, sliced
Rim
 1 tbsp Kosher salt
 1 tbsp chili powder

Soak the jalapeño slices in tequila in a jar; let them sit for 15 minutes so the spice infuses the tequila. After 15 minutes, remove the jalapeño slices.

Mix the salt and chili powder on a plate. Smear the rim of the glass with a lime wedge, then dip the rim into the salt and chili powder mixture, coating the rim completely.

3

Add ice to each glass.

4

Mix the juices, simple syrup, and infused tequila in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously.

Pour into the glass, garnish with a watermelon slice, and enjoy!
