The Spirulina Margarita
Ingredients
- 4 oz Casa Mexico Blanco Tequila
- 1 oz agave syrup
- 1.5 - 2 oz fresh-squeezed lime juice (for reference, one lime will yield 1 ounce)
- 1 oz Amaro
- 1/2 oz Spirulina
- 1/4 cup chopped cucumber
Instructions
- Add cucumber to the shaker and muddle.
- Fill shaker with ice and the rest of the ingredients, and shake until thoroughly chilled, about 15 seconds (the bottom of a metal shaker should frost over).
- Fill two highball glasses with fresh ice and strain margarita into both glasses. Garnish with sun-dried, gold-dusted lime wedges (or lime juice) if desired and serve.
Notes
Pro Tips:
- Use Spirulina for additional health benefits.
- Fresh Limes generally yield 1 ounce per lime.
- Choosing fresh and organic is always better.
- A Blanco Tequila lets you know how great the distiller is because there are no oak flavors or aging to hide behind. Instead, it’s just the flavor of agave, freshly distilled.
- Reposado and blanco tequila are perfect for margaritas and other mixed drinks, as the slight amount of aging rounds and softens the flavor.
