This recipe came about because I was craving a margarita but we were nearly out of limes and tequila. Scarcity is often the driving force of creativity and we love using what’s on hand to make things work!
Ingredients
1 oz tequila
1 oz mezcal
juice of 1 lime
juice of 1/2 an orange
dash of maple syrup (largely depends on your sweetness preference – we like our drinks rather tart)
1/2 oz of Grand Marnier
HEADER 2
Fill a cocktail shaker 2/3 of the way full with ice and add all of the ingredients except for the Grand Marnier. Give her a good shake and pour over ice. Top with your Grand Marnier “floater” and serve in fancy glass because YOU FANCY!
