Instructions

The Eclipse of the Agave is a spin on the classic Margarita, offering a visual and flavorful experience that tempts the senses. It features a layered presentation, with a deep red grenadine base transitioning into a traditional lime-green margarita, symbolizing a lunar eclipse. Glassware: Classic Margarita Glass Ingredients: - 2 ounces Tequila Blanco - 1 ounce Fresh Lime Juice - 1/2 ounce Triple Sec or Cointreau - 1/2 ounce Agave Syrup - 1/2 ounce Grenadine - Kosher Salt for the rim - Lime wheel for garnish Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing the margarita glass. Run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass and dip it into kosher salt to coat the rim. Set aside. 2. In a shaker, combine the Tequila Blanco, fresh lime juice, Triple Sec, and agave syrup. Add ice and shake vigorously until well chilled. 3. Take the prepared margarita glass and carefully pour the grenadine into the bottom of the glass to create the base layer. 4. Slowly strain the margarita mixture over the back of a spoon to float it above the grenadine, creating a two-layered effect. 5. Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass. 6. Serve immediately and instruct the drinker to stir the cocktail before sipping to blend the sweet grenadine with the tangy margarita, emulating an eclipse. Enjoy the Eclipse of the Agave as the flavors and colors meld, just as the moon passes in front of the sun.
