Instructions
Jalapeño-Infused Vodka
Pour vodka into a jar or pitcher with a lid. Thinly slice jalapeños, discarding the seeds. Add jalapeño pepper slices to the jar, and close the lid.
Leave the jar in a cool, dark place, like a cupboard, to infuse. Give it a quick shake every couple hours, tasting a spoonful periodically. When it’s as spicy as you want, up to 12 hours, scoop out the peppers.
Homemade Spicy Bloody Mary Mix
In a large pitcher, mix together all ingredients except the vodka. Refrigerate, covered, for 1–3 days to let the flavors infuse and develop.
To serve, rim a glass a glass with seasoned salt. Fill with ice and 2 ounces vodka. Top with Bloody Mary Mix and stir. Garnish with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
