Keith's 1001 Cocktails: Celebrating National Margarita Day with The Meyer Lemon Margarita


Keith's 1001 Cocktails


February 22Nd is National Margarita Day and our lovable Keith would love to celebrate by sharing, with our readers, one of his favorite Margarita recipes : The Meyer Lemon Margarita.

Meyer Lemon Margarita Recipe

1 1/2 oz. fresh Meyer Lemon Juice
1 1/2 oz. Tequila
1 oz. Triple Sec (or Cointreau if you want to go “top-shelf”)

sea salt for rimming glass

1. Rub the rim of an old fashioned glass (or whatever similar vessel you prefer) with a meyer lemon slice. Swirl the rim through a small pile of kosher or sea salt to salt the rim.

2. Put the meyer lemon juice, tequila, and triple sec in a cocktail shaker, add ice and shake for 15 seconds.

3. Put a few cubes of ice in your glass. Strain the cocktail into the glass and enjoy.



* A little note on Meyer Lemons: Meyer Lemon is a citrus fruit between a lemon and mandarin therefore tends to be a little sweeter and not sour as a lemon. The fruit is yellow and rounder than a true lemon. Famous also for it's ethereal perfume.
