Cooks’ Ingredients Mexican Style Seasoning

Put all the margarita ingredients in a high-speed blender, then whizz to a liquid, working in batches if needed. Strain through a sieve over a bowl, letting the liquid drip through without pressing it, then discard the pulp. Cover and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
When ready to serve, mix the salt and Mexican seasoning on a plate or in a shallow bowl. Dip the rim of your glasses in water, then roll in the spicy salt mixture. Fill the glasses with ice and pour the chilled margarita over. Add a jalapeño or lime slice if you’re feeling fancy.
