Elderflower Tea Margarita

5 min

1 serving

A lemony tea twist on the classic!

Ingredients

  • 1⁄2 lime or lemon, cut into wedges
  • Sea Salt, enough to trim glass rim
  • lemon zest, enough to trim glass rim
  • ice cubes
  • 1 oz tequila
  • 1 oz limoncello liqueur
  • 1⁄2 cup Elderflower Cordial Herbal Tea, or green tea of your choice, prepared, chilled
  • 4 tbsp lime or lemon juice

Preparation

  1. Moisten the rim of a margarita glass with a lime or lemon wedge. Sprinkle Sea Salt and lemon zest on a small plate. Invert the glass in the trimmer, rotating gently to “frost” the rim evenly. Set aside.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, combine remaining ingredients. Add more tea if you are using a highball glass.
  3. Shake well and strain into the prepared glass. Garnish with a lime or lemon wedge.
