Grapefruit Margarita Recipe

This sweet and spicy grapefruit margarita recipe are so refreshing! Add a little spice to the rim of your glass for a gentle kick and garnish with all your favourite finishes!

Ingredients

• 1 ounce fresh lime juice (about 1 large lime, juiced)
• 1 teaspoon light agave nectar or 2 teaspoons simple syrup
• 2 ounces grapefruit juice (about ½ large grapefruit, juiced)
• 1 ½ ounces Cenote Tequila Blanco

Chili-salt rims and garnish

• 3 parts kosher salt
• 1 part chili powder
• Lime wedge
• Small grapefruit peel for garnish, optional

Directions

1. First, prepare your glasses. Mix together the salt and chili powder (for a little kick) on a small, rimmed plate. Run a lime wedge around the outer top edge of your glasses, then roll the edges in the chili-salt so it sticks.

2. Place one big ice cube or a few smaller ice cubes in each glass. In a cocktail shaker or mason jar, add the lime juice, agave nectar. Pour in the grapefruit juice and Cenote Tequila Blanco, then top off the shaker with ice. Fasten the lid on securely and shake well.

3. Strain the mixture into your prepared glasses. Garnish the drinks with a small wedge of lime, sliced halfway through the middle so it rests on your glass.

Brilliant in color, this lively tequila is packed with bright citrus and pepper on the nose. Continuous flavor of rich, cooked agave, spices, subtle wood and green vegetables, are a result of mellowing the spirit in American Oak barrels for three weeks.
