1 cup water
3 hot peppers of your choice

3 large oranges
1 lemon
½ grapefruit (optional)
1 cup ice cubes
METHOD
Make the spicy simple syrup: Place a small saucepan over medium heat
and add 1 cup of sugar 1 cup of water.
Halve your chosen chili peppers and place in the pan with the mixture.
Allow the mix to come to a simmer for 20 min occasionally stirring to help
dissolve the sugar.
Once thickened, remove the simple syrup from the heat.
Halve the lemon and slice two thin slices from the halves to use as garnish.
Squeeze the remainder of the lemon and place the juice in a jar.
Cut and squeeze the oranges and grapefruit (optional) into the jar.
Mix the juice to combine.
Dip the top rim of each glass into the spicy simple syrup then into the
remaining sugar to create a sweet and spicy rim.
Add ice to each glass then pour over a tablespoon of the spicy
syrup and one ounce of gin.
Pour over the desired amount of fruit juice and stir lightly.
Garnish with one of the lemon slices (cut a slit to the middle to
hang on the glass).
Cheers and Ginjoy!
