Sweet Heat Margarita
Happy National Margarita Day! We have a fun ‘rita recipe for you to try on this joyous occasion. She’s nice and sweet with a sneaky bit of heat on the end.
Here’s what you need:
Cocktail:
2 oz tequila
1 oz Peach SweetShine
3/4 oz fresh lime juice
15 drops habanero bitters
pinch spice blend (recipe below, or substitute your own!)
lime wheel/wedge
Spice Blend:
2 tbsp. chili powder
1 tbsp. paprika
1/2 tbsp. cayenne pepper
1/4 tbsp. white pepper
1/4 tbsp. kosher salt
First, use a slice of fresh lime to rim your glass.
Then twist the rim in the spice blend to coat.
Beautiful! Now for the cocktail …
In a mixing glass, combine:
2 oz tequila
1 oz Peach SweetShine
Don’t forget to shake it up!
3/4 oz fresh lime juice
15 drops habanero bitters (or to taste)
Pinch of spice blend (or to taste)
Add ice … a crucial ingredient for dilution of the tart lime juice!
Cover tightly, and shake vigorously until ice cold and frothy.
Strain over ice into your prepared glass, garnish with a lime wheel and an extra sprinkle of spice blend, if desired.
Sweet Heat Margarita with Peach SweetShine.
Cheers!
