#DOTW: Blood Orange Margarita

it’s a heatwave! It’s still morning, and it’s already 96 degrees outside. Lord have mercy! While a bunch of people are considering this a great beach day, I, for one, am staying inside as much as possible, most likely with a chilled lemonade. But later, when it cools down, I will sit outside (for as long as I can take it) and have myself a cocktail or two. Of course a Margarita, it just seems fitting for the temperatures, and hey, who doesn’t love a Margarita?

What you’ll need:

Fill a martini shaker with ice. Add all liquids and shake well.Rim a cocktail glass with salt. Add ice to the cocktail glass, and strain liquid from the shaker into the glass. Garnish with a lime and a lemon slice.

*Note: You can use fresh blood orange juice, however do add some simple syrup, as it will be a bit more sour than with the syrup.

Cheers!
