Fruity and sharp, like a margarita ought to be. If you like, give it a gently floral twist by replacing half the pomegranate juice with 10ml hibiscus iced tea. Serves one.
¼ lime, to coat the glass, plus 15ml juice
35ml tequila (I use Olmeca Altos Plata)
15ml triple sec
30ml pomegranate juice
5ml agave syrup
Rub the rim of a tumbler with the lime, then dip the glass in a 50:50 salt:sugar mix, to coat. Hard shake all the liquids with ice, then strain into the glass. Serve on the rocks, garnished with a lime wheel and a few pomegranate seeds.
