“Berry Caliente” is a sweet and subtle organic cocktail made with a touch of aphrodisiac and a bit of delicious antioxidants.

Berry Calient

Berry Caliente is a wonderful blend of sweet, sour and spice. The wait time of jalapeno-infused tequila is only 24 hours and absolutely worth it!

The Organic “Berry Caliente” Cocktail Recipe

- 2 ounces jalapeno infused organic tequila (see recipe below)

- 5 organic Blackberries

- 5 organic Raspberries

- 10 organic Blueberries

- 1/2 organic lime

- 1/2 ounce organic agave nectar

- 1 slice of a jalapeno pepper

Tools Needed: juicer, cocktail shaker, cocktail strainer, jar, small cooking strainer.

To prepare the organic jalapeno infused tequila: (Infusion time: 24 hours)

- Pour half of a bottle of organic tequila into a jar that can be completely sealed. Slice 2 organic Jalapeno Peppers lengthwise in half and place in the tequila. Seal the jar and place in a dark area (pantry or cupboard). Let sit for 24 hours then use a small strainer to remove the jalapenos and their seeds. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tip: I like to use 1/2 of a bottle of organic tequila. That way, if the tequila is too spicy for you or a guest, you can dilute it with the remaining tequila.

To make the organic “Berry Caliente” : Juice all of the berries together and pour into the cocktail shaker. Squeeze half of a lime into the juice and add 1/2 ounce of organic agave nectar. Add about 1 cup of ice to the shaker and pour 2 ounces of jalapeno-infused organic over the ice. Shake very well and strain into a chilled martini glass.

Garnish with a slice of organic jalapeno pepper.

Cheers!

Alternative option: If you don’t like the heat of the jalapeno peppers, this cocktail is great without the infusion as well, just use regular organic tequila and your taste buds will be pleased!

Health Benefits: Fresh, organic berries have strong antioxidant properties and are wonderful for your immune system. Jalapeno peppers are natural fat-burners and are known for their aphrodisiac properties! Enjoy!

Organic Choice: Pesticide residues thrive on berries and are on the “must have” organic list, in addition, organic berries taste better and the organic choice is MUCH better for the environment.

1 ounce Organic Simple Syrup

Tools Needed: Cocktail Shaker, Muddler, Strainer, Martini Pick (for garnish)

To make the Organic Raspberry Greenteani: Add about 7 Organic Raspberries to a cocktail shaker and muddle very well. Fill the cocktail shaker about half way with ice. Pour 2 ounces of Organic Green Tea infused Vodka and 1 ounce of Organic Simple Syrup over the ice. Cover and Shake for 30 seconds. Strain and pour the cocktail into a chilled martini glass.

“Fresh Berry Rumtini” Organic Cocktail Recipe

Luscious, sweet and smooth, the Fresh Berry Rumtini organic cocktail makes antioxidants amazingly sexy! Loaded with the nutrients and flavor of pure, organic berries, topped off with a warming and mellow rum, this martini could be called “a little slice of heaven”.

Fresh Berry Rumtini (serves 1)

2 ounces Organic Rum*

6 Organic Strawberries (med.)

6 Organic Blackberries

6 Organic Raspberries

20 Organic Blueberries

1/2 Organic Lime

1 ounce Organic Simple Syrup

lime wheel for garnish

Tools Needed: Juicer*, Cocktail Shaker, Strainer

To prepare the Organic Simple Syrup: Pour 1/3 cup of water and 1/3 cup of Organic Sugar into a sauce pan. Bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove from heat and let cool.

To make the Fresh Berry Rumtini: Get out that juicer and juice all of the berries together (if you don’t have a juicer, see alternative recipe below). Pour the berry juice into a cocktail shaker and add about 1 cup of ice. Pour 2 ounces of Organic Rum, 1 ounce of Organic Simple Syrup, and squeeze the juice of 1/2 Organic Lime, over the ice. Cover and shake well. Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass.

Garnish with a lime wheel.

Enjoy!

*Juicer Alternative: If you don’t have a juicer, you can still enjoy this cocktail, but will be missing out slightly on the full health benefits that juiced berries provide. To make the Fresh Berry Rumtini without a juicer: Place all of the berries into a cocktail shaker. Muddle the berries well enough (or use the bottom of a spoon) to release all of the juice from the berries. Add about 1 cup of ice to the shaker. Pour 2 ounces of Organic Rum, 1 ounce of Organic Simple Syrup, and squeeze the juice of 1/2 organic Lime, over the ice. Cover and shake well. Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with a lime wheel.

Health Benefits: Organic Berries are amazingly powerful antioxidants and contain many vitamins and nutrients wonderful for both mind and body!

Organic Benefit: Non-organic berries are absolutely covered in harmful pesticides and grown with chemical fertilizers, so selecting organic berries is essential to your health.

Serving Suggestions: The Fresh Berry Rumtini is a sweet cocktail with a tropical flare and has a beautiful color that “pops” at any party or table. If you are making for a cocktail party, juice the berries just prior to guest arrival and store covered in the refrigerator so you have plenty, guests will want more than one!
