While traveling through New Mexico several years ago I stopped at a small out of the way Mexican restrauant for dinner. I had the "house special" a steak with a spicy orange Tequila sauce. I love trying to duplicate foodsI have enjoyed. Read more This is very close! Try using different "heat" of peppers to suit your taste. See less

Tequila and Honey. The folks that make jagermeister also make a honey liquor, called, appropriately enough, Barenjager. Tasty. Ima try this one, well, shucks, maybe I'll try a bottle of tequila tonight and think about the honey.

What would you think about Habeneros, properly "tammed down"? I would think the "fruity overtones" go great with the orange and honey.
