GINGER ROSEMARY MARGARITA RECIPE (MAKES 2)
- 3 oz Blanco Tequila (option for a smokey taste, swap 1 ounce of Blanco for 1 ounce of Mezcal)
- 3 limes, juiced (approx 1/3 cup)
- 3 tbsp Rosemary ginger simple syrup (recipe below)
- 1 splash Carbonated water (love the bottles of Topo Chico)
- Ice
- Course salt, lime, and rosemary sprigs to garnish
SIMPLE SYRUP RECIPE
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/2 oz fresh ginger (chopped)
- 1 large sprig of fresh rosemary
For the simple syrup: In a small sauce pan add sugar, water, ginger, and rosemary and bring to a boil. Once boiling stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let sit for 30 minutes. Strain into a jar and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
For the cocktails: Rub rim of glasses with lime and dip in salt. In a cocktail shaker or jar, combine tequila, lime juice, and 3 tablespoons of simple syrup. Shake and strain into ice filled glasses. Top with a splash of Topo Chico (or other sparkling water) and garnish with a sprig of rosemary and lime.
