The Scarlett Margarita

Rich and indulgent, this margarita blends Añejo tequila with Grand Marnier’s deep orange complexity for a luxurious citrus warmth. Lime juice adds a bright, zesty contrast, while simple syrup smooths the edges with a touch of sweetness. The result? A bold, well-rounded cocktail with vibrant citrus layers and a silky finish.
