Pro Tip
This one takes a double pour on purpose. Chai and milk are sweet, and sugar softens heat, so the recipe calls for two 1/4 oz pours to let the fresh pepper come through. Say "Swi-cy" twice. For a milder drink, start with one. The recommended Margaheata® serving is 1/4 oz; naturally sweeter drinks like this one take more.
Every delicious spicy version needs Margaheata.
Keep the tequila, vodka, or rum you already like; Margaheata brings the sweet heat from hand-selected fresh serranos, habaneros, and jalapeños. You set the heat one 1-second squeeze at a time, and since it's 0% ABV the same bottle works in the cocktail and the mocktail. The only thing it replaces is that sad half-jalapeño in the back of your fridge.
