When I was in Nevada a while back a friend turned me onto this drink.

Iguano
1/3 Hot pepper infused tequila
1/3 Margarita mix
1/3 Orange juice

Serve in an old fashioned glass filled with crushed ice and garnish with a pickled Tabasco pepper skewered on a long toothpick or drink stir.

To make hot pepper tequila: you roast or grill 6 large Jalapeno peppers, cut them in half lengthwise and insert into a 750mL bottle of good amber colored tequila with a few shots poured out of it.

You could make a better but similar tasting drink like this:

Good tequila
Your hot pepper sugar syrup
Fresh squeezed lime juice
Orange juice

If you work on it for a few hours, I'm sure you can get the recipe just perfect.
