Spicy Tommy’s Margarita Recipe
One of my favourite drinks is a Tommy’s Margarita; more tequila and less everything else, and I like a spicy Tajin rim, a Mexican blend of lime, chilli and salt. You can order the Tajin from The Mex Grocer – it’s so addictive. My Recipe is very punchy and sour so feel free to tweak it as you like. This is a really clean drink, so use a banging tequila, like Patron or Aqua Riva tequila.
Method
- Mix the tequila, agave and lime juice over ice.
- Tip the Tajin onto a plate and some water into a shallow bowl. Dip the rim of a glass about 1/2 cm into the dish of water and then into the tajin. twist the glass to get a really good, spicy rim.
- Fill the glass with ice and lime wedges. Shake the drink and pour over into the glass. Cheers!
