RECIPE HOW TO DO RASPBERRY MARGARITA

Dificulty: Easy
Portion: Serves 1
Time: Hands on time 10 min, plus cooling time

Ingredients

60ml good quality tequila
45ml raspberry syrup (see below)
30ml orange liqueur (Grand Marnier, Cointreau or Triple Sec)
1 cup crushed ice, plus extra to serve (optional)
3-4 fresh raspberries to serve
150g raspberries (fresh or frozen)
100g granulated sugar
50ml water
Juice 1 lime
Dash raspberry syrup
1 tbsp freeze-dried raspberry powder
2 tbsp caster sugar

Step by step preparation

For the raspberry syrup, combine the raspberries, sugar and water in a small pan and cook over a medium heat, stirring regularly until the sugar dissolves and the raspberries start to break down. Bring to a boil, then strain into a small bowl. Stir in the lime juice and leave to cool, then chill in the fridge until needed.
To make the margarita, put the crushed ice in a cocktail shaker, then pour in the tequila, raspberry syrup and Grand Marnier. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 1 minute.
To serve, coat the rim of a glass with a little raspberry syrup. Stir together the raspberry powder and sugar on a flat plate. Dip the moistened rim of the glass into the sugar mix and tap to remove excess coating. Fill a glass with fresh crushed ice, the whole raspberries and a little extra raspberry syrup. Strain the margarita into the prepared glass and serve.
