Combine tequila, lime, ginger syrup, and hot sauce in cocktail shaker. Stir.
Strain over ice-filled rocks glass.
Garnish with cilantro, sea salt, and fresh-cracked black pepper to taste.
Notes
Pre-ground pepper will not have the same effect on this drink as fresh-cracked.
This is an alcoholic drink and not intended for minors. A mocktail could be made by replacing the tequila with soda water. Be careful! It will still burn.
