Rooftop Margarita
Orange blossom R-WOL (Rhymes With Orange Liqueur) and a spicy salt rim fancy up this well-loved classic drink
Yield: 2 cocktails
Ingredients
Salt Rim
- Lime habanero to taste
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
Drink
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons tequila
- 1/4 cup R-WOL
- 1/4 cup simple syrup (1/8 cup water, 1/8 cup sugar)
- 6 ice cubes
Directions
- Crush the lime habanero, mix with salt, and spread out on a saucer or shallow plate
- Moisten the glass rims with water, then dip the glasses upside down in the habanero salt
- Combine all the drink ingredients in a cocktail shaker
- Shake while doing a little dance!
- Pour into glasses being careful to avoid pouring over the salt rim (you could be extra careful and use a funnel, but we believe in you!
Notes
I like kosher salt because the flakes are about the same size as the lime habanero flakes, so they don’t compete with each other for real estate on the glass rim. That said, you can use whatever salt you have and it won’t ruin anything.
