Cinqo de Mayo!

It’s Sunday and it’s Cinqo de Mayo!

I’m going to spend it with a big jug of Margaritas.

See ya all on Monday!

Summer in a glass – Margarita

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lime, halved
• 45ml Tequila
• 30ml Cointreau (triple sec)
• 45ml lime juice

Method:

 

1. Step 1

   Wet rim of glass with a piece of lime, then dip into salt to give a salt rim.

2. Step 2

   Fill a cocktail shaker 2/3 full of ice, then add the alcohol and lime juice, shake, then strain into the prepared glass.

3. Step 3

   Serve with an extra wedge of lime.

 

NB: Notice this drink is shaken over the ice…absolutely nothing about crushed ice slurpee style margaritas for me!

And just in case you need a little fashion fix. Here are some of my favourite photos related to Frida Kahlo.
