Tequila Lime Chili Popcorn Flavoring
- 1 recipe Homemade Microwavable Popcorn
- 80 mL (1/3 cup) butter, melted
- 1 lime, zested and juiced
- 1 shot tequila (Cuervo works good here!)
- 2 turns of pepper mill (1/2 teaspoon) of pepper
- 5 mL (1 teaspoon) salt
- 10 mL (2 teaspoons) chili powder
- Prepare the popcorn as per previous recipe; place into bowl.
- Add butter, lime zest, and freshly squeezed lime juice. (Note: put the lime in the microwave for 5 seconds to help juice the lime easier.)
- Add tequila, toss together for about 5 seconds until all liquid is incorporated.
- Add pepper, salt and chili powder; toss to coat evenly.
- Serve right away while popcorn is hot.
