We visited San Antonio Texas and my friend had said she got the best margarita of her life. While we enjoyed seeing the city, I think I need to make her a margarita because they were trash.
2 oz Tequila Ocho Blanco
1 oz fresh lime
1 oz orange liqueur
1/2 ounce Ancho Reyes (el rojo)
Shake shake with ice, pour over fresh ice of any variety.
Related - if anyone on here lives near there, where are these great margaritas or was she just drunk.
Yeah usually I do 2-1-1 (tequila, sweet liqueur, lime) but it was good like this too. Really good actually, not too weak in flavor at all and tequila forward still.
I do have a fire tincture that is more picante for adding heat without sweet, made it with habaneros and annatto. So have recourse for days I am intolerant of anything sweet but want easy spicy in the drink.
