Alfred Cointreau Margarita

Alfred Cointreau Margarita SAM_1517sWhen I announced my 2015 Rum Howler Margarita Challenge, the folks at Select Wines immediately arranged for me to receive a bottle of Cointreau singed by Alfred Cointreau himself, and asked me if I would consider using their spirit as the orange liqueur of choice for the cocktail challenge. I thought using the special bottle of Cointreau was a splendid idea, and in honour of Mr. Cointreau (for supplying and signing my bottle) I have dubbed this version of the quintessential Tequila cocktail, the Alfred Cointreau Margarita.

Alfred Cointreau Margarita

4 oz Blanco Tequila
1 3/4 oz Cointreau
1/4 oz sugar syrup (1:1)
2 oz Fresh Lime Juice
ice
Lime wheel

Combine all ingredients in a large metal shaker and add ice
Shake until the sides of the shaker frost
Shake and strain into a set of martini glasses
Garnish with salt and a lime wheel.

Please enjoy this indulgence responsibly!
