But what sets the Cadillac Margarita apart from the classic Margarita, you ask? It’s a question worth exploring, as this cocktail is a testament to the power of upgrading your ingredients.
The Ingredients that Make the Difference
At its heart, the Cadillac Margarita shares the same DNA as the classic Margarita – tequila, orange liqueur, and fresh lime juice. But here’s where the magic happens:
- Premium Tequila: In the Cadillac Margarita, the spotlight shines on premium or aged tequila. Think reposado or añejo, tequilas that have been patiently aged to perfection. The result? A smoother, more complex flavor profile that sings with subtle notes of oak, vanilla, and caramel. It’s the kind of tequila that deserves to be savored, not hurried.
- Grand Marnier: While a classic Margarita often calls for triple sec or Cointreau, the Cadillac Margarita introduces a touch of luxury with Grand Marnier. This orange liqueur, known for its superior quality, adds a rich and nuanced sweetness that complements the tequila and lime juice like a harmonious symphony.
- Freshness is Key: Just like the classic Margarita, freshness is the secret ingredient in the Cadillac Margarita’s success. Squeeze those limes by hand, and your taste buds will thank you. It’s the vibrant, zesty kick that makes every sip a revelation.

Cadillac Margarita
Equipment
- 1 Jigger
Ingredients Â
- 88 mL Reposado Tequila
- 44 mL Grand Marnier
- 44 mL Lime Juice
InstructionsÂ
- Prepare the Glass: If you’d like a salted rim, start by running a lime wedge around the outer edge of your rocks glass. Hold the glass upside down and dip the rim into a plate of kosher salt, gently twisting to ensure an even coating. Be sure to only salt the outer rim, leaving the interior clear to avoid an overly salty sip. Set the prepared glass aside.
- Fill the Shaker with Ice: Take a cocktail shaker and fill it with ice cubes. This will be used to chill and mix the ingredients.
- Measure and Add Tequila: Measure premium Reposado tequila. Pour the tequila into the cocktail shaker over the ice.88 mL Reposado Tequila
- Squeeze Fresh Lime Juice: Roll a lime on the countertop to release its juices. Cut the lime in half, and using a juicer or your hand, squeeze fresh lime juice.
- Add Lime Juice to the Shaker: Pour the freshly squeezed lime juice into the shaker with the other ingredients.44 mL Lime Juice
- Shake Vigorously: Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds. This chills the mixture and ensures that all the ingredients are well-mixed.
- Strain into the Prepared Glass: Strain the shaken mixture into the prepared Margarita glass filled with ice. Fresh ice is key to preventing over-dilution, as the ice used during shaking will have already begun to melt.
- Float the Grand Marnier: To create the luxurious layered effect that distinguishes a Cadillac Margarita, gently float Grand Marnier on top of the cocktail. Hold a bar spoon (or teaspoon) just above the surface of the drink and slowly pour the Grand Marnier over the back of the spoon. This technique disperses the liqueur evenly without mixing it fully, adding a visual and flavor-enhancing layer.44 mL Grand Marnier
- Garnish (Optional): If desired, garnish your Cadillac Margarita with a lime wheel or twist on the rim of the glass.
