Spicy Peach Margaritas
Indulge in the tantalizing flavors of a spicy peach margarita, a zingy twist on a classic cocktail.
Shake up Tequila, Grand Marnier, spicy margarita mix, and peach juice then pour into Tajin-rimmed glasses, garnished with slices of jalapeño, peach, and lime.
Serve the Spicy Peach Margaritas for a Cinco de Mayo fiesta, or at your next dinner party, after all, margaritas pair perfectly with Mexican and Tex-Mex recipes including this bright, colorful, and tasty Texas Cowboy Caviar!
Ingredients For Spicy Peach Margaritas
For your convenience, I’ve linked any specialized ingredients needed for this recipe to Amazon below.
- Tequila – you can use silver or gold tequila in this cocktail.
- Grand Marnier – a French liqueur made with cognac, bitter orange, and sugar.
- Spicy Margarita Mix – a spicy, sweet, and sour cocktail mix. If you can’t source the spicy kind, regular margarita mix must do!
- Peach Juice
- Tajin Seasoning – a chili, lime, and sea salt mixture which we used to rim the glass in this cocktail. It is often sprinkled on fresh fruits and vegetables to add a zingy kick.
- Simple Syrup – you can buy this ready-made, but it is very easy to make yourself. To make simple syrup, place equal measures of sugar and water in a pan and stir over medium heat. By the time it starts to simmer, the sugar is dissolved, and that’s it!
- Garnish – Fresh Peaches, Limes, and Jalapeño
This cocktail is shaken, but don’t worry if you don’t have a cocktail shaker, you could just use a container with a tight-fitting lid – like a mason jar or even the cup on a blender or smoothie maker.

How Do You Salt the Rim of a Margarita Glass?
Traditionally, margaritas are served in the eponymous margarita glass, a stepped-diameter variant of a champagne coupe. The rim of the glass is often dipped in salt, sometimes sugar, and sometimes something else, like Tajin seasoning.
You don’t have to use the margarita-shaped glasses for this cocktail—use any glass you have. The method for adding salt to the rim of a glass is exactly the same!
- Pour some salt (kosher salt/sea salt flakes work well) onto a small plate or saucer.
- You could even try different flavored salts.
- Cut a notch/sit into the flesh of a lime wedge, then run it around the rim of the glass to add juice to the inside and outside edges.
- Dip the glass rim into the salt and give it a twist or two (like you’re cutting cookies from pastry).
- And you’re done!
You can buy cocktail-rimming dishes online (there is a gadget for everything!), but a small plate or saucer will work fine.

Pour into a glass with ice and serve with slices of peach, jalapeño, and limes if desired.
Spicy Peach Margaritas Mocktail (Non-Alcoholic Spirits)
For adults who would still like to enjoy the taste of alcohol in their mocktail, you could try non-alcoholic alternatives.
In the UK, try Lyre’s, which is also available on Amazon in the UK and Amazon.com.
Other brands include Strykk (UK), and Ritual (US & Canada). Non-alcoholic spirits are a growing trend, so be on the lookout in your local stores and online.

You could also skewer jalapeño slices, peach slices, and lime slices onto cocktail picks for guests to garnish their drinks.
Additionally, you could pre-rim glasses with Tajin, or provide a glass-rimming kit for a DIY option.
