Diez de Mayo - Perfect Day For a Margarita

Cinco de Mayo has come and gone, but I am having a craving for the margarita cocktail artisan Rhino made for me last week at the Phoenix in Beverly Hills.  This recipe happens to be one of my all time favorites.

2oz. Reposado tequila
.5 oz fresh lime juice
.5 oz grapefruit juice
two jalapeno slices
three cucumber slices
fresh micro cilantro

Combine all ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake.  Double strain over ice.
