Italian Margarita
A liberal dash of amaretto adds very Italian subtexts of apricot and almond to a classic Margarita

It occurs to me that another way of looking at this is not as an Italian Margarita but as a Mexican Mai Tai.

But either way it's delicious!

Would this margarita suffer from having a salt rim on the glass?

Not if you like salt. I prefer my margaritas with a couple of drops of saline solution in the cocktail but without a salt rim.

Yup. This is a good one!

Perfect balance of flavours. Liked that it was neither too sweet or sour. Will become of our "must have" margaritas.

Made this last night as a “drink of the day” to accompany a meal of Porchetta. It was a big hit with all 4 of us.

Lip-smacking good!

All four ingredients here normally bully and dominate a cocktail, so having them all together is a Champions League of Booze!
Subtle yet fighty, this innovative twist on a classic shows there's always space for improvement.

Delicious!
No question that it’s a margarita, but a drop more sweet than usual.
Served this to my wife without description, and she was shocked and delighted by the flavors.
