Elderberry Margarita

Sambucol Elderberry Margarita

By Michal Grappe

Ingredients:

  • 1 Shot Tequila
  • 1/2 Shot Orange Triple Sec Liquor
  • 1/2 Shot Honey Simple Syrup*
  • 1/2 Shot Sambucol Elderberry Syrup
  • Juice of 2 medium oranges
  • Juice of 1/2 lime
  • Salt for the rim
  • Ice

Directions: Use the lime to rub the rim of your cup and turn the cup over into a plate of salt to coat the rim. Fill the cup with ice. Squeeze the juice from 2 medium oranges into your cup. Add tequila, orange triple sec, honey simple syrup, and elderberry syrup. Squeeze in lime, give it a stir. Enjoy!

*If you want to make your own honey simple syrup, it is equal parts water and honey. Boil the water as it will help the honey dissolve. Measure out 1/2 cup of honey and 1/2 cup hot water. Stir together. Add it to cocktails in place of regular sugar simple syrup.
