Also, don't worry about thinly slicing, you can make thicker slices. 3. Next, place your jalapenos in your air-tight container. Pour in your 750 mL of tequila. Close the container and place your tequila in the fridge for 1 - 2 days. 4. Taste test your tequila after a day to see the spice level. If you want a bit more bite, let it sit and infuse for a bit longer. 5. After you let your tequila sit, remove the jalapenos. Keep your tequila in the fridge and use it to make all your favorite spicy cocktails.
