Recipe: C&C Margarita
Ingredients:
0.75 oz fresh lime juice
0.5 oz fresh lemon juice
0.75 oz orange liqueur (Gran Gala or similar, preferably. Triple Sec will work just fine though)
1.5 oz tequila (we used a jalapeño infused tequila for a spicy marg)*
~0.25 oz butterfly pea blossom infused tequila to float (optional)
Build:
Add all ingredients, except the butterfly pea tequila, to a shaker with ice and shake well to chill.
Rim a Margarita glass or rocks glass with salt, Tajín, or whatever else you might prefer.
Fill either a Margarita glass or rocks glass (rocks glass preferred) with fresh ice. If using a rocks glass, we prefer a single large-format ice cube, if available.
Strain the Margarita over fresh ice.
If using the butterfly pea tequila for a float, add it to the shaker with the reserved ice, swirl briefly to chill, then strain and float on top of the Margarita.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes: *If you want a spicy marg without the wait to infuse tequila, just add a couple of fresh jalapeño slices to your shaker and muddle before adding the ice and other ingredients, or, if you dont want to muddle, you could even just get several really thin slices and toss them in with everything else when shaking.
