An Improved Margarita

About this Cocktail

Full disclosure: Angostura just posted this recipe* on Instagram, I made it and it's SUPREME. Something about the agave nectar and bitters just gives this margarita depth and extra smoothness.

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Espolón Reposado Tequila
• 1 oz Lime Juice
• 1/2 oz Cointreau
• 1/2 oz Agave Nectar
• 1 dash Angostura Bitters
• 1 dash Scrappy's Orange Bitters

Preparation:

Dry shake ingredients (to dissolve agave nectar) then ice shake. Pour into a chili/salt rimmed Old Fashioned glass with one big rock.

*They suggested blanco tequila. I think this one is better with Reposado. Note: a classic margarita without Cointreau is not worth its salt.
