The Spa-Garita: Cucumber Cilantro Margarita
{ TRY THIS PALEO MARGARITA RECIPE WITH CUCUMBER AND CILANTRO. IT’S REFRESHING, SWEET, AND A LITTLE SOUR. }
{ INGREDIENTS }
1/4 cup diced cucumber
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves (tightly packed)
3 ounces 100% agave blanco tequila
1 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
3/4 ounce pure maple syrup
1 cup ice
{ METHOD }
Muddle the cucumber and cilantro in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Add the tequila, lime juice, and maple syrup. Shake well then pour into a rocks class filled with ice.
*If you don’t have a muddler, pulse the cucumber and cilantro in a food processor or blender before adding the liquid, or use a mortar and pestle.
*If you want a frozen margarita, simply place all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
*Leaving the muddled cilantro and cucumber in your drink adds to the flavor, but if you prefer, the beverage can be poured through a strainer into the glass with ice.
