It’s National Margarita Day tomorrow, and today I visited my friends over at PIX11 to make some fun Margaritas.
First up, how to make a classic Margarita:
What you need:
1.5 oz el Jimador Tequila
.5 oz Triple Sec
3 oz. Sour Mix (can swap for just lime juice) *use fresh juice, always fresh juice
How to make:
- In a shaker filled with ice, add ingredients and shake to mix.
- Pour into margarita glass rimmed with salt (optional).
- Garnish with a lime wedge.
In a recent survey commissioned by el Jimador Tequila, over 1,000 millennials were surveyed and named champagne and black raspberry as the two unique ingredients they would most like to put in a margarita.
