Step away from that Margarita Mix. There is no excuse for making a premix margarita. Follow this simple recipe to deliver a zesty margarita that's sure to bring your party to life.

One of our favourite cocktails at Garniche79 is the Classic Margarita. It’s great for any occasion, its mix of sweet and sour appealing to most guests.  We’ve been told our Margarita is a little boozy but tastes delicious.  We like to add a hint of spice with our chilli margarita salt which will heat things up 🔥

 

Ingredients

60ml Tequila

30ml Cointreau

30ml Fresh Lemon and Lime juice

(Optional 15ml simple syrup)

Garniche79 Chilli Margarita Salt and Lime slice to finish

 

Method

Rim a margarita (or a coupe) glass with Garniche79 Chilli Margarita salt

Add to a shaker tequila, cointreau, juice and simple syrup if using. Shake well for 15 seconds, then strain with a fine strainer into rimmed glass. Float a Garniche79 lime wheel on top and wow your guests.

 

We recommend those who like a sweeter cocktail to add the simple syrup to cut through the acidity.
