Champagne Margarita

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ounce (30mL) lime juice, plus lime wedge to wet the rim
  • Salt and/or Tajín 
  • Ice
  • 1 ounce (30mL) tequila
  • 1 ounce (30mL) Cointreau, Grand Marnier, or other orange liqueur
  • 2 ounces (60mL) Champagne, cava, or prosecco

Step by Step Instructions
 

Step 1

  • Run a lime wedge over the rim of a chilled serving glass, and dip in salt and/or Tajín.

Step 2

  • To a cocktail shaker, add ice, lime juice, tequila, and Grand Marnier. Shake for 20 seconds to chill, and pour into a chilled serving glass.

Step 3

  • Top with sparkling wine, and serve.
  • Optional: For a fun twist, muddle some fruit and/or herbs to flavor the cocktail. I like pineapple and jalapeño, passionfruit, or basil and strawberries.
