Drink Up Month has consisted of happy hours + drink specials — but we understand that sometimes, you just want to stay home. That doesn’t mean the Drink Up celebration has to end.
Today, we present you with a recipe for Restless Spirit’s Builder Margarita (surprise, it’s made with gin).
Ingredients
- 1.5 ounces Builders Botanical Gin
- 3 ounces of your favorite agave-based margarita mix (Restless Spirits recommends Tres Agaves)
- Ice
- Lime wedge, for garnish
How-to
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add gin and margarita mix; shake vigorously.
- Strain into a rocks glass, with salted rim.
- If desired, garnish with a lime wedge.
Fun fact: The Builders Botanical Gin has predominate botanical notes, including a refreshing blend of lavender, meadowsweet, and orange peel. Missouri’s first licensed woman master distiller Benay Shannon (once a non-gin drinker) originally made the spirit somewhat begrudgingly as a special request. Now, it’s a fan favorite.
