Blood Orange Margaritas

Instructions

  • ½ cup silver tequila
  • ½ cup blood orange juice
  • 3 TBS Cointreau or Triple Sec
  • 2 TBS fresh lime juice
  • 1 TBS agave/honey (***optional)
  • Coarse sea salt – to garnish rim of glass
  • Blood orange slices to garnish

Notes

Place the salt on a small plate. Run a wedge of lime around the rim of each glass. Roll the rim of the glass in the salt to coat it.

Fill a small cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the tequila, blood orange and lime juice, and Triple Sec or Cointreau.

***If you prefer a sweeter margarita add the agave or honey.

Cover and shake for 30 seconds. Strain the liquid into your glass and garnish it with a slice of blood orange.
