Description

Kiwi Cucumber Margarita uses fresh fruit and cucumber rather than relying on syrup. Kiwi brings tart tropical sweetness, cucumber gives a cool vegetal note and blanco tequila keeps the drink crisp and agave-forward.

Triple sec and lime preserve the familiar Margarita shape while a small amount of agave smooths the sharper kiwi acidity.

Ingredients

  • 45 ml Blanco tequila
  • 20 ml Triple Sec
  • 25 ml lime juice
  • 1 piece Kiwi (peeled and chopped)
  • 3 pieces Cucumber slices (thin slices)
  • 5 ml Agave syrup
  • Ice

Equipment needed

Muddler – Use gentle pressure on fruit or herbs. Cocktail Shaker – Shake to chill and integrate the drink. Fine Mesh Strainer – Fine-strain for a polished texture.

Instructions

  1. Add the chopped kiwi and cucumber slices to a shaker and press gently to release their juice.
  2. Add tequila, triple sec, lime juice and agave syrup.
  3. Fill with ice and shake hard for 15 seconds.
  4. Double strain into a chilled margarita glass or over fresh ice in a rocks glass.
  5. Garnish with a cucumber ribbon and thin kiwi slice.
