"There are tons of Margarita variations out there and I almost always stick to the basic one because it’s just perfect. But having left-over mint from serving Old Cuban’s the night before I thought I’d at least spice it up a tiny bit. This has the discreet and lovely mint aftertaste that comes through elegantly.
I always serve my Margaritas with an equal tequila/lime ratio and I just think this is a perfect balance to this classic cocktail making the tequila a tad less prominent.
No need to use the same amount of salt as in the photo but it's been a few really warm summer weeks here in Sweden when posting this so we were craving salt! :)",
