I was at the Whisper Lounge @ the Grove in LA on Monday night and I fell in LOVE with a great drink while I was sadly watching our Lakers lose to the Celtics. I am a HUGE tequila fan, so this delicious beverage helped get me over my sadness of our lose. I had one sip of this cool, refreshing cocktail and I immediatly fell in love with The Blood Orange Margarita.

It is very similiar to a Tequila Sunrise (I was brought back to a nastolgic weekend at a Jimmy Buffet Concert in Vegas a few years back) but this drink has a bit more of a bitter after-taste. Needless to say, I will be serving this drink at all of my future events this Summer while drinking one myself!

The Blood Orange Margarita

What its Got:

-Premium Tequila
-Triple Sec (or better yet..Cointreau!)
-3 tbsp Sugar
-Splash of Sweet & Sour
-Fill with Blood Orange Puree or freshly squeezed Blood Orange Juice

I hope you get a chance to try this delicious cocktail. When planning a private party or Summer Wedding, this is an excellent drink to recommend to your clients.

I hope you enjoyed the post. Feel free to comment on this drink recipe, or add recipes of your own!

Cheers!
