Dos Caras Skinny Margarita
Vibrant, crisp, and refreshingly light—Our Skinny Margarita is a modern classic, blending the authentic spirit of Dos Caras Blanco with a zesty mix of lime and orange, and a touch of agave for a perfectly clean, bright sip.
Cocktail Recipe
Ingredients:
Kosher salt & lime wedge, to rim the glass
1 ½ ounces Dos Caras Blanco tequila
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1 ½ tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon light agave nectar
Ice
Technique:
Rim the Glass – Pour a thin layer of Kosher salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the top edge of your glass to moisten it, then dip the glass into the salt, rotating to ensure an even coating. Fill the glass with ice and set aside. This traditional touch enhances every sip.
Shake for Perfection – Fill a small cocktail shaker with additional ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, and light agave nectar to the shaker. Tightly close the lid and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds. This thorough shake chills and perfectly blends all the ingredients, creating a crisp, well-integrated flavor.
Strain and Serve – Strain the vibrant cocktail into your prepared, rimmed glass over the fresh ice.
Garnish – Slice a lime wheel or wedge to complete your light margarita.
