Blackberry Margarita
I put a new spin on this classic cocktail by incorporating fresh blackberries to provide natural sweetness while simultaneously upping the nutrition ante.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup fresh blackberries, divided
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 ounce tequila
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey
- ¼ cup sparkling wine or champagne
- ½ cup ice cubes
Instructions
- In a glass, lightly muddle ½ cup of the blackberries with the honey and lime juice using a wooden spoon.
- Add the tequila, ice cubes, and the remaining ½ cup blackberries (leave them whole) and gently stir. Top with the sparkling wine or champagne.
- For an extra-special touch, line your glass rims with salt or sugar before making your cocktails.
