Taste the Tangerine Lemongrass Margarita, a zesty variation on the classic featuring tangerine and lemongrass.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 oz. tequila
  • 1 oz. orange liqueur cointreau, triple sec, grand marnier
  • 1 oz. fresh tangerine juice
  • 0.5 oz. fresh lime juice
  • 0.5 oz. agave syrup sugar or lemongrass simple syrup
  • Salt or sugar for rimming the glass
  • Tangerine slice and lemongrass stalk for garnish

Instructions

  • Rim your margarita glass with salt or sugar.
  • In a shaker, combine tequila, tangerine juice, orange liqueur, lime juice, and lemongrass simple syrup.
  • Add ice and shake well until the mixture is chilled.
  • Strain the drink into your prepared glass.
  • Garnish with a slice of tangerine and a stalk of lemongrass.

Notes

  • Fresh juices will provide the most flavor. Squeezing your limes and tangerines will help a lot.
  • Bring sugar, water, and lemongrass stems to a boil to make your own simple syrup. It's simple and offers a distinct taste.
  • To prolong the cooling effect of the margarita, chill your glass before serving.
