Perfect Patron Cucumber Margarita
Ingredients: Volume:
- Your Favorite Silver Tequila 1.25 oz
- St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur .25 oz
- Fresh Lime Simple Syrup 1 oz
- English Cucumber Slices 1” wide 3 each
Procedure:
In a mixing glass, combine all ingredients with ice packed to the rim. Shake with a martini shaker and then pour all ingredients into a rimmed margarita glass.
Garnish:
Our signature margarita rim for this cucumber flavored cocktail is black pepper & salt, but feel free to use just salt if you want to keep a traditional margarita rim.
A couple notes:
- To make the rimmer, just combine equal parts salt and pepper, then rim. To keep sodium down, only use ½ or ¼ of the rim for garnish.
- Fresh Lime Simple Syrup is 60% fresh squeezed lime juice to 40% pure cane syrup. The balance of acidity from the lime and sweet from the sugar is what will make your margarita taste deliciously balanced.
- For a little added flavor, feel free to add fresh mint, basil or even cilantro to your margarita.
