Ingredients
Scale
- Orange Sugar
- Zest from 1 blood orange
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons kosher sea salt
- Margarita
- 3 ounces fresh blood orange juice (about 1 large blood orange, juiced)
- 2 ounces 100% agave silver tequila
- 1 ounce fresh lime juice (about 1 lime, juiced)
- 1/2 teaspoon light agave nectar
- Orange or lime wedge, if desired
Instructions
- Mix together the zest, salt and sugar on a small plate (preferably one just slightly larger than the top of your margarita glass). Run a wedge of lime around the top of your glass. Dip the top of the glass into the salt blend at a 45-degree angle and roll it from side to side to catch the salt. Add ice cubes to your glass and set it aside.
- Fill a small cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the tequila, freshly squeezed blood orange and lime juice and agave nectar.
- Put on the lid and shake for 30 seconds. Strain the liquid into your glass and garnish with a slice of blood orange or lime, if desired.
