ingredients
Homemade Grilled Jalapeno Orange Lemonade
- 1 jalapeño pepper cut in half
- 3 oranges sliced
- Traeger Wood Pellets I like to use Hickory or Pecan for this particular recipe
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
- 2 cups water
Shandy
- 2 cups homemade shishito orange lemonade
- 2 cups pale ale
instructions
- Heat Traeger grill to high. Once the temperature reads at least 400 degrees, add orange slices and jalapeño halves to the grill.
- Grill for approximately 5 minutes, flipping both pepper halves and orange slices halfway through until they have charred grill marks and are softened.
- In a large pitcher, muddle together peppers, orange slices, honey and lemon juice (be sure to reserve 4 grilled orange slices for garnish). Add water and stir to combine.
- Cool lemonade completely in the refrigerator.
- When ready to serve, strain lemonade into another pitcher through a fine mesh sieve.
- Fill 4 tall glasses with ice.
- Fill each glass halfway full with the grilled jalapeño orange lemonade.
- Top with pale ale until the glasses are full. Lightly stir to combine.
- Garnish each glass with jalapeño and a grilled orange slice. Serve immediately.
