Special Tips or Variations:

- For a spicier margarita, muddle the jalapeños in the pitcher to release more heat.

- Adjust the amount of agave nectar to your taste preference for sweetness.

- You can also make a mocktail version by omitting the tequila and triple sec and increasing the amount of lime juice and agave nectar for a non-alcoholic option.
