Grapefruit Margarita with a Twist

Now that the sunshine and heat has been sticking around for awhile now (hellooooo patio season!), I thought it’d be the perfect time to share a new cocktail recipe. I’ve always loved grapefruits, so it’s no surprise that I love them mixed in cocktails! This is one of the most refreshing cocktails I’ve ever made, so enjoy :)

Ingredients

For 2 cocktails

4 oz of your fave tequila

2 freshly squeezed grapefruits

1/2 oz simple syrup (optional)

Grapefruit sparkling water to top off the drink

Sprinkle of tajine spice

Sea salt flakes

Directions

Step 1:

Cut a grapefruit wedge to rim the circumference of the glasses, then roll them with sea salt flakes and tajine.

Step 2:

Combine ice, tequila, grapefruit juice, and simple syrup into a cocktail shaker and shake until the mixture is cold.

Step 3:

Fill your glasses with ice, then strain the mixture into the salted glass. Finish with a splash of grapefruit sparkling water, a sprinkle of tajine, and garnish with grapefruit slices. Give the drink a light stir and voila, enjoy!
