Pomegranate Margarita
This drink is courtesy of my dearest husband who is a great mixologist.
Whenever we have people over, I cook and he makes fabulous drinks- it is a great combination. He loves coming up with different, delicious concoctions.
Recently some friends went to Mexico city and got us a very nice tequila. My husband was super happy to get a great quality tequila and couldn’t wait to give it a test run.
The same friends invited us over for a cook out and my hubby decided to make a pomegranate margarita concoction and take it to their house to serve right before dinner.
The pomegranate margaritas were delicious- perfectly mixed with the right amount of alcohol, lime juice and sweetness.
This drink will be ideal to serve for Memorial Day.
For one drink:
- 2 ounces pomegranate liquor
- 1 ounce Reposado tequila
- ½ ounce Triple sec
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed limejuice
- 1 tablespoon simple syrup
- ½ cup crushed ice
- Sea or kosher salt for the glass rim on a flat plate
- Half a lime
Add the pomegranate liquor, tequila, triple sec, limejuice, simple syrup and ice in a shaker. Shake well. In the meantime, cover the glass rim with limejuice from the half lime. Dip the glass rim in the salt and pour the drink and serve.
If you want the drink frozen and blended- add all the ingredients into a blender including the ice. Blend till smooth and pour into a salted glass.
