I have been experimenting with cocktails for Halloween. I wanted something sophisticated to serve that still depicted Halloween charm. I thought a Blood Orange Margarita would go well with the Orange Chicken that I posted yesterday. As promised here is a cocktail for which its name alone screams Halloween.
Blood Orange Margarita
Ingredients
4 oz. Tequila
2 oz. Triple Sec
6 oz. fresh blood orange juice
Juice of two limes
¼ cup granulated sugar (for Halloween, see how I dyed my sugar black)
Lime Wedge
Method
Rub rims of two glasses with lime wedge. Pour sugar onto a plate and spread out evenly. Dip rims of glasses into sugar until evenly coated.
Add all ingredients to a shaker, and shake well to mix well.
Fill glasses with ice. Pour margarita into the glasses.
Sip and enjoy!
