Description

The main difference between Tommy’s Marg and a traditional marg is the use of agave syrup in place of orange liqueur. The simple ingredient swap makes for a bright, citrusy and very drinkable cocktail.

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces blanco tequila
  • 1 ½ ounces fresh lime juice
  • ½ ounce agave syrup/nectar
  • Kosher or flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Add 2 ounces tequila, 1 ½ ounces lime juice, and ½ ounce agave to a cocktail shaker.
  • Add ice, secure lid, and shake vigorously until thoroughly chilled, about 15 seconds.
  • Strain into a rocks glass rimmed with salt and filled with ice.

Equipment

cocktail shaker
jigger
cocktail strainer

Notes

If you prefer your cocktails to be less-sweet and more tart, start with 1/4 ounce agave.
