Tommy's Margarita

A fresh take on a classic, this iteration of a Margarita uses agave nectar instead of Triple Sec for a vibrant, sweet-but-sour cocktail that really lets the tequila shine through.

Equipment

  • 1 x Rocks glass
  • 1 x Jigger

Method

  • Pour

    Wet 1/2 rim of rocks glass with lime wheel or orange zest, then dip into salt mixture. 

    Using a jigger, measure 50ml Casamigos Reposado Tequila or Casamigos Blanco Tequila into a cocktail mixer with the lime juice and agave nectar. 

  • Mix

    Shake the mixture vigorously in the cocktail shaker until the surface of the shaker feels chilled.

    Strain the drink with a cocktail strainer into the salt-rimmed small rocks glass.

  • Garnish

    Add fresh ice to the glass and garnish.  

  • Grab a bite

    Get some grub in before or while you’re drinking – it slows alcohol absorption.
