Guava Chilli Margarita (Serves 1)
Wow, this is good! It’s a cocktail that deserves a summer’s day – so here’s hoping that there are a few on their way!..
60ml tequila
30ml lime juice
60ml guava juice
1-2 thin slices of chilli
A handful of ice
A lime wheel and a slice of chilli to decorate (optional)
To garnish the rim of a glass:
2 tablespoons sea salt
1 teaspoon sumac
A wedge of lime
- First of all, garnish the rim of your glass: mix the salt with the sumac and place on a saucer. Rub the lime wedge around the rim of your glass then dip it into the salt mixture.
- In a cocktail shaker combine the tequila, lime juice, guava juice and slice(s) of chilli, add a handful of ice and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until chilled. Strain into your prepared glass and garnish with a lime wheel and a slice of chilli.
Margarita Cocktail (Serves 1)
Recently I’ve been rediscovering the joys of this cocktail! It’s pretty much the quintessential drink for a summer evening, but who really needs that excuse?!…
50ml tequila blanco
25ml lime juice
20ml Cointreau
A handful of ice-cubes
Salt and 2 lime wedges to garnish
- Sprinkle a few teaspoons of salt onto a small saucer. Rub one wedge of lime along the rim of your glass, then dip it into the salt so that the entire rim is covered.
- Put the tequila, lime juice and Cointreau into a cocktail shaker then add a handful of ice and shake for 15 seconds until cold.
- Strain the liquid into your prepared glass and serve with a wedge of lime. Enjoy!
