Recipe Note
This recipe was developed and featured on Fare Isle. The original blog post can be read here.
Unused margarita mix will keep for 1 week sealed in an airtight container and refrigerated. For a non-alchoholic beverage replace tequila with an equal amount of flavored seltzer water (pineapple, lime or orange for example) and orange liqueur with orange juice. Infuse the green chiles into the lime juice instead.
