This is a bright, refreshing and perfectly balanced margarita. The smoky, earthy character of our NewMexcal smoky joven agave spirit plays perfectly with the crisp cucumber & lime, the Orange You Glad to See Me? artisan triple sec adds a little citrus sweetness and a touch of our Aristology White vermouth smooths the finish.

CUCUMBER NEWMEXCAL MARGARITA RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz NewMexcal Smoky Joven Agave Spirit
1 oz Orange You Glad to See Me? artisan triple sec
.75 oz Aristology White vermouth
1 oz freshly pureed & strained cucumber juice
1 oz lime juice
1 sugar cube (or 1 tsp sugar)
sliced cucumber & salt rim for garnish (optional)
TO MAKE:
Rim glass with salt if you'd like (I love salted rims, but actually prefer this without.) Combine cucumber, lime & sugar cube in shaker and muddle to dissolve sugar. Add remaining ingredients & ice. Shake & strain into a martini or coupe glass without ice, or strain & pour over fresh ice in a rocks glass. Garnish with sliced cucumber.
ENJOY!
