Refreshing citrus margarita with a hint of herbal gin

Instructions

The Citrus Zephyr Margarita is a refreshing take on the classic margarita, offering a burst of grapefruit and lime that's perfect for those who prefer their drinks on the lighter and crisper side, without an overload of sweetness. It combines the tartness of fresh citrus with a subtle herbal note from gin, a twist that sets it apart from the traditional margarita profile. Ingredients: - 1 1/2 oz Silver Tequila - 1/2 oz Gin (preferably one with citrus botanicals) - 2 oz Fresh grapefruit juice (ruby red for a sweeter profile, or white for tartness) - 1/2 oz Fresh lime juice - 1/4 oz Light agave nectar (adjust to taste if a hint more sweetness is desired) - A pinch of sea salt - Grapefruit peel and a sprig of rosemary for garnish Instructions: 1. Fill a shaker with ice. 2. Pour in the silver tequila, gin, fresh grapefruit juice, fresh lime juice, light agave nectar, and a pinch of sea salt. 3. Shake well until the outside of the shaker feels cold (about 15-20 seconds). 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled, salt-rimmed (optional) coupe glass. For a salt rim, before shaking, run a grapefruit wedge around the rim of the glass and dip in salt. 5. Express a grapefruit peel over the drink by squeezing it to release the oils, then drop it into the glass. 6. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary for an aromatic finish. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicate balance of flavors that makes the Citrus Zephyr Margarita a standout choice for a refreshing and sophisticated cocktail experience.
