Now here is a distinct Margarita, one that is extraordinary thanks to one ingredient. That magic elixir is the Scotch liqueur, Drambuie, and it cannot be paired with any old orange liqueur so that is upgraded to the cognac-based Grand Marnier. With all of these high class additions to the average Margarita, one can only expect that a cheap tequila will bring it all back down. To avoid this sad predicament find a nice blanco, or better yet reposado, and you will thank yourself with the rich, aged result.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 oz tequila
- 1/2 oz Grand Marnier
- 1/2 oz Drambuie
- 1/4 oz fresh sweet and sour mix
- lime wedge for garnish
- salt for rimming
Preparation:
- Pour all ingredients in a shaker with ice.
- Shake and pour into a margarita glass rimmed with salt.
- Garnish with a lemon wedge.
