With summer almost in full swing, we think it is about time we revisited our annual ‘Boss The Cocktail’ series. This season we kick things off with the help of the girls and guys of Don Julio tequila.
Don Julio Los Altos Margarita
We say: Don Julio and i-D recently teamed up for ‘La Cantina Primavera’, a celebratory event that showcased fresh thinking and new beginnings. Tried and tested, the Don Julio Los Altos Margarita is a drink for your summer barbecues, refreshing and punchy, with bags of flavour.
Ingredients
1) 50ml Don Julio Blanco
2) 25ml agave syrup
3) 20ml freshly squeezed lime
4) Soda water
5) Lime wedge
6) Sprig of mint
Method: Place the first 3 ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake for 15-20 seconds. Add a lime wedge to a highball/tall glass, pour ingredients of the shaker into the glass before topping up with soda and garnishing with mint.
TIP from the expert: Don Julio’s Brand Ambassador and Mixologist Deano Moncrieffe says “You can twist this long version of a margarita by using 25ml of Triple sec or Grand Marnier and topping up with tonic instead of soda water”.
