Spicy Salty Ranch Water

 Ranch Water recipes have been popping up a lot here lately.

This one showed up in my Better Homes and Gardens magazine.  I'm sure I know a couple of people who would enjoy this.

Spicy Salty Ranch Water

Ingredients:

2 jalapeños (1 thinly sliced, 1 frozen)

1 12-ounce glass bottle Top Chico, very well chilled

2 ounces blanco tequila, very well chilled

1 lime (2 tablespoons juice)

Pinch of sea salt

Lime wedge

Tajin, for garnish

Add tequila, lime juice, pinch of salt, a few slices of jalapeño, and some of the grated jalapeño to a glass of Topo Chico.

For those who like their margaritas with a zing, I think you will like this ranch water recipe as well.
