Winter Margarita
When the evenings are cold here in Alberta, I want a stronger more intense cocktail than the typical summertime Margarita offers. Making such a cocktail with bitters and an aged spirit also offers a cocktail with depth and character. Here is my Winter Margarita.
Winter Margarita
2 oz Añejo Tequila (Corralejo Añejo)
3/4 oz Orange Curacao
1/2 oz fresh Lime Juice
1/2 oz fresh Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Sugar Syrup (1:1 ratio)
dash Aztec Chocolate Bitters (Fees Brothers)
Ice
Lime Slice
Add the six ingredients into a metal cocktail shaker with ice
Shake until the sides of the shaker frost
Strain into a cocktail glass
Add a Lime Slice for garnish
Enjoy!
