This Sangrita recipe is a Mexican staple. And a savory, slightly spicy accompaniment to a shot of good tequila.

Provided by Alex Frane

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

15 ounces tomato juice
6 ounces grapefruit juice, freshly squeezed
6 ounces orange juice, freshly squeezed
2 ounces lime juice, freshly squeezed
2 ounces Tabasco
2 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
1 teaspoon salt
1 jalapeño pepper, halved (with seeds)

Steps:

Add the tomato juice, grapefruit juice, orange juice, lime juice, Tabasco, black pepper, salt and jalapeño pepper into a pitcher and stir until the salt dissolves.
Let stand for 15 to 30 minutes, then remove and discard the jalapeño. (The longer the jalapeño infuses, the spicier the Sangrita will be.)
Serve as an accompaniment to a shot of tequila.
Store any remaining Sangrita in the refrigerator.

Another great recipe from Rick Bayless. Traditionally, it is served in a shot glass accompanied by a shot of good tequila. Alternate sips of each so you savor each flavor. Mixing it with the tequila is a different animal - actually, it's called a Vampiro. (vampire)
