If anyone liked the jerky and chilli stuff we brought with us to the last event then you should have a look at:

Mama Jambalaya's 13 CHILLI TEQUILA ~ Amigos we are f*cked

This is a generations old technique handed down from my Mexican forefathers in a sealed envelope protected by an ancient voodoo curse stuffed inside a hedgehog. To reveal the secrets within will surely damn 13 generations with anal boils and sterility, (which will make the whole 13 generations thing a little difficult to follow through on - I suspect Papa Rodreguez Antonio Guisepe Alfonso Guatamala Cordory didn't think it through too well...)

But what the hell eh? I won't tell anyone if you don't...



Gold or silver tequila works equally well (if you do it right your silver tequila will end up looking gold anyway).

Use dried red chillies - I've tried it with fresh chillies and it gives the drink a hint of green pepper taste along with the heat, but the dried red if my weapon of choice, it gives a deeper 'woody' flavour and good heat.

To make:

Now this is the really tricky part so pay close attention, the smallest slip at this point could result in disaster! - Take anywhere between 3 and 13 chillies and chuck 'em in the bottle. On the first day you will probably see the colour leaching out of the chillies and settling in the bottom of the bottle - success! You're on your way.

Shake the bottle once a day for about 2-4 weeks depending on how hot you want it.

Remove chillies.

Drink.


Oh, ok, maybe it wasn't that difficult after all then...

Good for slamming with salt and a slice of lime, makes an interestingly pokey Margarita (3 parts Tequila, 1 part each of Triplesec and lime juice - Cointreau will also work in a pinch if you don't have Triplesec as they're both basically orange-flavoured liqueurs. Shake with crushed ice and pour into a salt-rimmed glass with a slice of lime to garnish).

Cheers

Gonna try the recipe on Rum, may be bloody lovely or like tasting cheech's socks

i bought a load of jerky for the event....but i eated it.

Remember kids, this is not an alchopop.

Let's face it, it barely counts as fit for internal consumption...

Ok - in commemoration of it's discovery during the last event, I've decided to call the 13 Chilli tequila and black pepper slammer the "Simon is a c*nt slammer"....or maybe that should be the "Simon has a c*nt slammer"


...maybe the "Tivvy Slammer" will suffice tho.

ooo...imagine if you snorted and it came out your nose....

Errr... we are talking about the pepper?
