History

A tequila-forward Margarita with tangy citrus, balancing sweetness, and faint salty undertones. The classic Margarita is 2 parts tequila, 1 part triple sec, and 1 part lime juice, resulting in a slightly sour drink. To adjust for lime sourness, adding 5ml of agave syrup boosts flavour and improves balance.
