🌵🍋 Margarita Mood: Activated.

Tomorrow is National Margarita Day.

Salted rim or no salt. Classic lime. Clean, balanced, no shortcuts.

Here’s how The Artist Behind the Bar builds a proper margarita:

✨ Margarita Recipe
• 2 oz tequila
• .75 oz orange liqueur
• 1 oz fresh lime juice
• .25 oz agave

Shake hard with ice. Strain over fresh ice. Garnish with lime. Adjust salt to your mood.

Simple. Intentional. Perfectly balanced.

Come see Chris at Elaine’s today from open to close and let him make it for you the way it’s meant to be. 🍸
