The Margarita is a dink with character due to its wide palette of aromas and flavours from the tequila. Fruity, herbal, woody notes blend with spicy, floral and slightly cocoa-like flavours. Combined with the taste of bitter and sweet orange peels from Cointreau and pleasingly tart lime juice balanced by a small dose of simple syrup you are in for a treat.
4 cl tequila
2 cl Cointreau
2 cl lime juice
0.5 cl simple syrup
Shake the ingredients with ice. Strain into a cocktail or coupe glass.
Margarita's name suggests that the drink originated in Mexico but the USA is also a possibility. The drink is commonly believed to hark back to the 1930s or early 40s.
