Recipe for a handcrafted top-shelf Cadillac margarita cocktail made with less sugar, freshly squeezed juice, high-end tequila and Grand Marnier.
Servings: 1
The cadillac of all margaritas served in a schooner glass.
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz high-end tequila - I like a good smoky tequila like Sauza Tres Generaciones
- 1 oz Grand Manier Orange Liqueur
- 2 oz lime juice fresh squeezed
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- lime wedge and/or jalapeno slices for garnish
- ¼ cup coarse salt
- crushed ice or ice cubes
Instructions
- Place the salt into a shallow dish. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of the glass and dip into the salt.
- Combine the tequila, Grand Marnier, citrus juice, sugar and ice in a shaker and shake well to combine ingredients.
- Fill the salted glass with ice and pour the Margarita over the ice.
- Garnish with lime and serve immediately. To add an extra kick you can also garnish with a thin slice of jalapeno.
