Description

A real grapefruit margarita made with blanco tequila, fresh grapefruit juice, fresh lime, elderflower liqueur, and simple syrup.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ounces blanco tequila
  • 1 ounce fresh red or pink grapefruit juice (buy 2 grapefruits for a batch of 4-6)
  • 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 ounce simple syrup
  • 1/2 ounce elderflower liqueur

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake vigorously for 10 seconds and pour into a Double old-fashioned glass with a salted rim.

Notes

Rub the rim of your glass with a grapefruit wedge to adhere the salt. This cocktail works great as a spicy drink as well. Add fresh jalapeno or spicy cocktail bitters for a twist.
