Bobby Flay Ginger Beer Margarita

This refreshing ginger beer margarita is full of citrusy flavor with a little spice from the ginger beer. It’s easy to make and perfect for a relaxing drink.

Ingredients Needed:

• 1 1/2 ounces silver tequila
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh lime zest
• 1 ounce fresh lime juice 
• 1 ounce fresh orange juice 
• Simple syrup, optional 
• 3 ounces ginger beer, cold 
• Lime wedge, for garnish 

How To Make Ginger Beer Margarita?

1. Shake the ingredients: Add tequila, lime zest, lime juice, orange juice, and a few ice cubes to a cocktail shaker. Shake well for 10 seconds.
2. Pour over ice: Fill a rock glass with ice and pour the mixture over it. Taste and add simple syrup if you want it sweeter.
3. Top with ginger beer: Gently pour in the cold ginger beer and stir.
4. Garnish and serve: Add a lime wedge on top and enjoy!

Recipe Tips:

• Use Fresh Lime and Orange Juice: Fresh juice gives the best flavor. Bottled juice won’t taste as bright and fresh.
• Shake Well for the Right Texture: Shaking the ingredients with ice helps blend the flavors and makes the drink cold and smooth. Don’t skip this step!
• Chill the Ginger Beer Before Adding It: Cold ginger beer keeps the drink refreshing and bubbly. Warm ginger beer can make the margarita taste flat.
• Taste Before Adding Simple Syrup: The orange juice and ginger beer already add sweetness. Try the drink first, then add simple syrup if needed.
• Pour Ginger Beer Gently to Keep the Fizz: Don’t shake or stir too hard after adding ginger beer. Pour it slowly on top and stir lightly to keep the bubbles.

How To Store Leftovers?

Let the leftover margarita sit until it reaches room temperature. Then, pour it into an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake well before serving, and add fresh ginger beer to bring back the fizz.
