Here is a Christmas twist on a margarita inspired by a doctor (my brother), hence the Rx.
Ingredients:
1.5 oz Blanco Tequila
1 shot of homemade simple syrup (equal parts water wine sugar)
1 freshly squeezed lime
1 smoker for drinks with smoke chips (purchase online)
1 Ice cube block frozen with cranberries and fresh rosemary
To smoke the tequila, infuse the tequila in an bottle of your choice. Smokers can be easily purchased on Amazon. Pour tequila in bottle and put smoke of your choice (we used mesquite chips). Swirl the bottle with smoke and tequila for a few 90 seconds. This will infuse the tequila and give it a smoky flavor.
Place smoked tequila, lime juice, and simple syrup in a shaker with ice and shake!!!! Shake shake shake!!!
Rim a rocks glass with salt and place ice block in the rocks glass.
Strain mixture into the rocks glass. Sip and enjoy.
This cocktail is perfect throughout the holiday season. And will wow your guests on New Year’s Eve!
Merry Christmas & Cheers from Veronica at Salvador Dobbs.
