Recipe Notes
Tips on making the Cadillac margarita
Use the BEST ingredients you can afford. Premium ingredients equal a more delicious drink
Always make your own sweet and sour. I prefer a 2:1 ratio, so two parts sour to one part sweet. Start there and if you decide you want it sweeter, add a bit more simple syrup
Always serve the Grand Marnier on the side, especially when you serve to guests. They're quite impressed when they pour the shot into the Cadillac margarita themselves
Salt the rim, but don't overdo it! Sometimes, after I salt the rim, I take my finger and clear a spot so if someone doesn't want to taste the salt they can use that spot to sip
Do NOT pour the liquid in such a way that it hits the salt. You do not want to wash salt into the cocktail
