Step 1
Run a lime wedge along the rim of a cocktail glass and dip the rim into Makrut Lime Sea Salt for a flavorful, citrusy finish. Fill the glass with fresh ice and set aside.
Step 2
In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and agave syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well chilled. Strain the margarita into your prepared glass. For an elevated touch, garnish with a lime wheel, twist, or even a dehydrated lime slice. Sip and enjoy responsibly!
Step 3
Spicy Margarita: Muddle 2-3 slices of fresh jalapeño or serrano pepper in the shaker before adding other ingredients. Add Peruvian Chile Lime Seasoning instead of Makrut Lime Sea Salt for extra kick.
Step 4
Tropical Margarita: Swap agave syrup for pineapple juice (½ oz) for a juicy, tropical twist. Garnish with a grilled pineapple slice for a smoky-sweet contrast.
Step 5
Berry Margarita: Muddle 4-5 fresh strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries in the shaker before adding ingredients. Use a Bourbon Barrel Smoked Sugar-rimmed glass instead of salt for a sweeter sip.
Step 6
Frozen Margarita: Blend all ingredients with 1 cup of ice until smooth for a slushy consistency. Serve in a chilled glass with a salted rim.
Step 7
Smoky Mezcal Margarita: Replace 1-2 oz of tequila with mezcal for a deep, smoky flavor. Garnish with an orange twist for a citrusy contrast.
