How to Make Agave Margarita
- Pour a small amount of kosher salt onto a small plate.
- Rub a lime wedge around the rim of an old-fashioned glass or coupe glass.
- Dip the rim of the glass into the salt.
- Combine the tequila, agave nectar, and lime juice in a cocktail shaker.
- Fill the shaker with ice.
- Shake vigorously until well-chilled (about 15-20 seconds).
- Strain the margarita into the prepared glass.
- Garnish with a lime wedge.
- **Fruity Variation:**
- Muddle 3 blackberries with 1/2 oz agave nectar in the cocktail shaker until the berries are slightly crushed and their juices are released.
- Continue with steps 4-8.
- **Spicy Variation:**
- Muddle 2 thin jalapeño rounds (remove seeds for a less spicy version) with 1/2 oz agave nectar in the cocktail shaker until the peppers begin to break down.
- Continue with steps 4-8.
- **Bright Variation:**
- Steep 1 hibiscus teabag or 1 teaspoon dried hibiscus flowers in 4 oz of hot water for 10 minutes.
- Remove the teabag/flowers and let the tea cool completely.
- Carefully layer a small amount of the cooled hibiscus tea over the margarita, creating a visually appealing red layer.
