Spicy Tamarind Margarita

Run a lime slice along the rim of a margarita glass, then dip the rim into salt to create a salted edge.

In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, tamarind paste, freshly squeezed lime juice, simple syrup, chili powder, and ice cubes.

Shake vigorously until the mixture is well chilled.

Strain the contents into the prepared margarita glass filled with fresh ice.

Garnish with a lime slice and serve immediately.
