Habanero Bitters for Vino Poblano

I mentioned that the Vino Poblano needed some spice.  I tried mixing one with sriracha, but it didn't really work.  So, taking a clue from Cocktail Hacker's coronal bitters, I made a batch of habanero bitters.  They are still steeping, but I'm excited to give them a try.  Recipe below.

Combine in a jar and let sit for 10 days:
1 lime, cut into eighths
5 habaneros, cut into quarters
1 Tbsp molasses
9 allspice berries, crushed
1/4 tsp. cinchona
3/4 c. plus 2 Tbsp 100-proof vodka (I used Smirnoff)
2 Tbsp plata tequila (I used Milagro)
