agree  Rosa Maria Duenas Rios (X): Creo que en este caso, el "chaser" (que sigue a la comida) es el tequila en sí, por lo que concuerdo con David.

agree  lincasanova: i do believe the tequila here is the actual chaser after a "Hot" meal.. like pablo says, a chaser is after smething even stronger.. so perhaps it is the way to finish off the flavors fo this meal.

Explanation:
un <chaser> es una bebida de bajo contenido en alcohol que se toma
después de otra más fuerte, para contrarrestar su efecto. No creo que tenga equivalente en español, por lo que se podría dejar en inglés, como sugiere Teresita, pero yo le daría un poco de "aire" llamándolo, por ejemplo un expulsa-tequila

no es el tequila mismo, del que se ya se habrán inflado con los jalapeños y cía.

(seguido por ) un tequila como bajativo


Explanation:
La palabra "bajativo" es chilena, pero su significado es muy evidente, por eso la propongo.Claro que aquel que crea que el tequila es para asentar el estómago va a acabar mal, pero ese es otro tema.
