Meyer Lemon Margarita


Here’s a fresh and floral take on the margarita. The sweet, light flavor of Meyer lemon juice pairs perfectly with St. Germain elderflower liqueur. Use blanco (silver) tequila for a milder tequila flavor. If you prefer a tequila-forward flavor, choose aged reposado tequila.

I like to serve this margarita “up” (strained into a chilled glass), but it’s also excellent served over ice.
