Casamigos Blanco Recipe

Casamigos Blanco Margarita

1. 1

   Prepare the glass

   Run a lime wedge around the rim of a rocks or coupe glass. Dip the rim into coarse salt on a small plate so that the salt adheres evenly. Set the glass aside.

2. 2

   Combine ingredients

   Add 2 oz Casamigos Blanco tequila, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz orange liqueur, and 0.5 oz agave syrup into a cocktail shaker.

3. 3

   Add ice and shake

   Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker feels very cold and slightly frosty.

4. 4

   Strain and serve

   Double strain (if desired) into the prepared salt-rimmed glass over fresh ice (for a rocks serve) or serve neat into the chilled coupe. If you prefer no salt, simply strain into a glass with fresh ice.

5. 5

   Garnish

   Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim. Optionally express a lime peel over the drink to release oils, then drop it in for added aroma.

6. 6

   Adjust sweetness and strength: taste and, if needed, add 0.25–0.5 oz more agave for a sweeter cocktail or a splash more lime if it needs more acidity.
