Ingredients
Silver Moon Margarita - Cocktail
Silver Moon Margarita - Preparation
1. Prep the glass
Rub a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled rocks or coupe glass. Spread the coarse or smoked salt on a small plate and dip the rim into the salt to coat. Set the glass aside.
2. Dry shake (if using egg white)
If you chose to include egg white for a silky texture, add the egg white to a cocktail shaker and dry shake (no ice) vigorously for 10–15 seconds to emulsify and build foam.
3. Mix the cocktail
Add the blanco tequila (2 oz), triple sec (1 oz), fresh lime juice (1 oz), fresh lemon juice (0.25 oz), and agave syrup (0.5 oz) into the shaker. If you used the egg white, add it back into the shaker now.
4. Shake with ice
Add a generous scoop of ice (about 1 cup) to the shaker. Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and the mixture is well chilled and slightly frothy.
5. Strain
Double-strain the cocktail into the prepared glass (use a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available) to remove ice shards and any solids.
6. Add the Silver Moon effect
For the signature moonlit accent, gently float blue curaçao (0.25 oz) over the back of a bar spoon onto the surface so it forms a subtle blue crescent or halo. Alternatively, lightly drizzle it in a thin arc across the top.
7. Garnish and serve
Garnish with a lime or thin lemon wheel on the rim or floated on the surface. Serve immediately.
