METHOD:
STEP 1: Start by putting the tequila, coriander and chilli into a cocktail shaker then smash using a muddler or end of a rolling pin. You bash in order to release the chilli oils.
STEP 2: Add the honey, lime juice and a handful of ice cubes into the mixture. Carefully cover the shaker and shake until the outside of the pitcher feels cold.
STEP 3: Slowly dampen the rim of a tumbler and dip it in salt. Then strain in the cocktail and garnish with a slice of chilli to serve. Enjoy!!
