This Aperol Margarita is a great union of two amazing places: Italy and Mexico. We frequently reminisce about when we first landed in Venice and took a stroll along the canal and ended up walking into a convenience store to discover they were selling single-serve cocktails in bottles. We were carrying a glass from the hotel just in case a photo opportunity presented itself, as we do. As Natalie modeled on the bank of the canal, pouring a personal cocktail with gondolas passing by in the background, we became enthralled by Venice. Here, the tequila blanco balances with Aperol flawlessly; the unadulterated agave notes are supported by the sweeter Aperol profile, which is then further accentuated with the addition of agave nectar.

Epicurious

Add the tequila, Aperol, juices, and syrup to a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake for approximately 30 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.

Double strain into a wine glass over fresh ice. Garnish with an orange twist.
