Our favorite flight attendant has inspired us to put our mixology skills to the test, thanks to her famous 'Kaleyrita' cocktail recipe.

On the latest episode of Celeb Bites, PureWow creator Juliette broke down how to create Kaley Cuoco's Signature Spicy Margarita. She revealed that the Big Bang Theory alum actually served the custom drink at her wedding to Karl Cook in 2018—and it's quite simple to make. Check out the full tutorial below.

In the episode, Juliette walked us through how to make the popular cocktail while educating us with some little-known facts about Cuoco—like the fact that she graduated from high school at just 16 years old. (Who knew?) Things were smooth sailing for the first few minutes, until Juliette ran into a slight mishap with the cocktail shaker. In the first take, the ingredients spilled everywhere (been there), but thankfully, she got it right the second time. She said, "Things got crazy, but I'm securing [the cover] on the top this time so we don't have a problem."

After taking a few sips of the finished product, she noted that the drink is not super spicy, so if you want to turn up the heat a bit, she recommends adjusting the recipe. As for the difficulty level, though, it's quite easy. And the best part? You don't need much. Juliette said, "It has ingredients you have in your fridge every day. You don't need to buy anything special for this."

So, we know we can whip up this recipe in a matter of minutes, but the real question is, is it tasty? Watch the full video for the final verdict.
