Agave Margarita
From the kitchen of CarlyA bright, balanced margarita built on tequila blanco and fresh lime juice, sweetened with agave syrup instead of triple sec. The salted rim catches the first sip, amplifying citrus and spirit. Simple, spirit-forward, perfect when you want something crisp without the cloying sweetness.
