Notes

There's a freezing/infusing time of 8 hours, so plan accordingly.

Step 1

Pour the tequila into a small jar. Add the habanero. Seal and let sit at room temperature overnight.

Step 2

Arrange the raspberries on a small baking sheet lined with parchment paper and transfer them to the freezer. Let freeze overnight.

Step 3

The next day roll the rims of four glasses in a little agave syrup. Give them a shake to remove excess drips. Roll them in the Tajín and transfer them to the freezer. Chill the glasses for at least 15 minutes.

Step 4

Place ice cubes in a blender. Strain in the habanero tequila and discard the habanero. Add the frozen raspberries, the lime juice, agave syrup, and the raspberry liqueur. Blend on high until smooth.
