Kitchen Cocktail Series: A Night In with Spicy Margaritas

This cocktail is for the nights where it’s impossible to hang with friends at a fancy New York City bar. But silence and solace can be sexy and fun. So why not shake up your night with Caribbean Jerk Sea Salt.

Ingredients

• 2 ounces silver tequila about 3 tbsp.

• 1 fresh lime juice

• 1 tbsp. triple sec

• 1 ½ tsp. sugar

• 1 tsp. Caribbean Jerk Sea Salt

• Ice

Directions

1. Rim the glass: Pour a thin layer of salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the top edge of your glass to moisten it, then dip the glass into the salt so that it sticks, tapping all the way around. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.

2. Fill a small cocktail shaker with additional ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, agave, and Caribbean Jerk Sea Salt. Tightly close and shake vigorously. Strain into the rimmed glass. 

   Cheers!
