Instructions

  1. Put a handful of ice into a cocktail mixer or glass jar. Add the tequila, lime juice, coffee liqueur, and coffee simple syrup and stir until it's cold.
  2. Wet the rim of a glass by rubbing a cut lime on it and then dip it into some salt. Add a handful of ice to the glass.
  3. Pour the margarita into the glass and garnish with a slice of lime.

Coffee Simple Syrup

  1. Warm the coffee and sugar in a small pan over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves. Let the syrup cool before using it. See notes.

Notes

  • The coffee simple syrup is easy to scale up if you want to make a bunch. Simply use 2 parts of coffee with 1 part of sugar. For example, 2 cups of coffee + 1 cup of sugar.
