Apple Cider Margarita
When its apple cider season this apple cider margarita is a must. Crisp, tart and the cinnamon sugar rim adds the finishing touch.
Looking for a twist to the standard margarita give this a try. The lemon juice balances out the sweet apple. Who doesn’t love tequila…..
My favorite part is the cinnamon sugar rim. Happy sipping! I love a beautiful and fun cocktail, and this margarita delivers. Who doesn’t have a mason jar in the cupboard? A mason jar is perfect for making salad dressing and using it as a cocktail shaker.
Margarita is traditionally made with tequila, triple sec and lime juice. This apple cider margarita is pretty close to the traditional with a twist using apple liquor and lemon juice. Here is another margarita that is worth trying Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita – Meats-Beets-Bubbles (meatsbeetsandbubbles.com)
This margarita would be great for a crowd. Make it ahead in a pitcher and keep it in fridge until your guests arrive.
To make the cinnamon sugar just use equal parts cinnamon and sugar and give it a little stir to mix it. Have some lemon wedges on hand to use to wet the rim. Then rotate the wet rim around the plate with the cinnamon sugar rim.
