Cucumber Margarita

A margarita to me is the ultimate cocktail. This refreshing twist on a classic will be your new favorite version. It’s easy to make and the perfect way to cool down on a warm day. Cheers!

Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cucumber
Juice from 1 orange
Juice from 1 lime
1/2 oz simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water dissolved)
3 oz tequila
Salt (optional)

Instructions

I love this cocktail because anytime you add cucumber to a recipe it instantly makes it so refreshing!
In a shaker muddle the cucumber until all of the juices are extracted
Add the fresh orange juice, lime juice, simple syrup, tequila, and a little ice
Shake until chilled and strain into a glass filled with ice and salt around the rim (optional!)
I like to garnish with a little cucumber slice and then serve. Cheers!
