Wanted Margarita

Wanted Margarita is a bold, intensely smoky variation of the classic agave sour that masterfully updates the timeless recipe. Shaken to a frosty chill with artisanal mezcal, sweet orange liqueur, and fresh lime juice, this crisp and invigorating cocktail is strained over fresh ice into a rocks glass elegantly rimmed with savory worm salt.

  • 0.75 oz agave nectar

  • 0.5 oz Cointreau or triple sec

Instructions:

  • Place all ingredients into a shaker with ice.
