SKINNY MANGO MARGARITA
Tequila is like wine, it is a simple process. It is made by hand and reflects both the terroir of the highlands or the valley soil in which the blue agave plant is grown, and the heart and soul of the distillers. It is a fascinating industry that combines old-fashioned traditional methods, and new science and technology in equal parts. It is also delicious and fun to drink.
Servings: 2 drinks
1.5 ounces favorite Silver Tequila
1 ounce Patron Mango Liqueur
2 ounces fresh-squeezed Meyer lemon juice
Ground cinnamon
Meyer lemon or orange slice, cut in half for garnish.
Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a short “rocks” glass filled with crushed ice. Dip the side of the Meyer lemon or orange slice into the cinnamon and garnish the glass. I make a cut in the center of the slice with a paring knife so that it slips over the rim of the glass more easily.
Chef’s Note: One ounce is equal to 2 tablespoons. If you don’t have an ounce measure, you can use a tablespoon.
