Cilantro Margarita – A Fresh Herbaceous Twist on the Classic Margarita

Simple

About the Empirical Cilantro Margarita The Cilantro Margarita is the improvement on the original that we never needed but are blessed with anyway. The herbal freshness of Empirical Cilantro plays just as well with a quality mezcal as it does with a blanco or reposado tequila—delicate enough to let the nuance of those spirits through, but strong enough to provide the pop of freshness we’re all looking for.

Ingredients

  • 1 oz Empirical Cilantro
  • 1 oz Tequila or Mezcal
  • 3/4 oz Orange Liqueur
  • 3/4 oz Lime Juice
  • Cubed Ice
  • Lime Wheel to garnish

Method

  1. Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake until well chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice. Garnish with a lime wheel.
