Chipotle Grapefruit Margarita Salt
The smoky chipotle chiles pair surprisingly well with fresh grapefruit zest. This would be an excellent flavor profile to pair with a sweet recipe like, a Strawberry Hibiscus Margarita.
Submitted by: Geoff Marshall from Chicago, IL
Yield: 1/2 cup
Preparation Instructions:
Using a microplane zester/grater, freshly zest the grapefruit into a mixing bowl. Be careful not to include the white pith, as it has a more bitter flavor
Add the salt to the mixing bowl, and stir or whisk until incorporated with the zest. You may wish to put on gloves and use your hands. The freshly grated zest can be difficult to work throughout the salt with a spoon or whisk alone.
Next, add the sugar and ground chipotle and whisk to combine.
