Start by preparing the glass. Spread the purple sugar on a shallow plate.

Run a lime wedge around the rim of your glass, then dip the rim into the sugar, coating it evenly. Set the glass aside.

In a cocktail shaker, add about 4 ice cubes.

Using a jigger, measure and add the lemon juice, lime juice, simple syrup, tequila añejo, and activated charcoal to the shaker.

Shake the mixture vigorously until frothy, about 10 times.

In the prepared glass, add a few fresh ice cubes.

Strain the shaken margarita into the glass over the ice.

Add a dash of edible glitter to the top of the drink and stir gently to incorporate the sparkle.

Garnish with a dried orange slice for a spooky, decorative touch. Serve immediately and enjoy your Spooky Halloween Margarita.
