You’re halfway done with Dry January – it’s time to spice things up! The star of the show in this mocktail is Clean Co. Tequila Alternative. It mirrors the nuances of a traditional blanco tequila – showing flavors of agave, oak, citrus and pepper.

With the addition of fresh jalapeño, lime juice, and a secret ingredient (keep reading to see what it is) you’ll have a classic spicy margarita, with zero the alcohol, ready to sip!
