Spice up your next Tito’s Handmade Vodka cocktail with New Mexico’s finest pepper, the Hatch chile.
As an ode to a pepper beloved for its buttery taste and culinary versatility, we’ve taken a bundle of green Hatch chile peppers and given them a Tito’s twist. From a Tito’s Hatch Chile Infusion to a special TitoRita, these smooth and smoky recipes will keep you satisfied as the weather starts to turn.
Grown in the rich soil of New Mexico’s Hatch Valley, Hatch chiles come in a range of different spice levels and are only in season from mid-August through the end of September. These chiles are great fired up on the grill, roasted slowly to perfection, or our personal favorite, infused with Tito’s.
To find some inspiration for mixing up a Tito’s Hatch chile concoction, take a look at our delicious cocktails below. The level of spice in your libation, however, is totally up to you.
