Guava Margarita

The Guava Margarita blends tequila or mezcal with guava nectar, fresh lime juice, agave nectar, and orange liqueur to create a tropical twist on the classic cocktail. Coarse salt or Tajin rim adds an extra layer of flavor. Shaken with ice and served cold, this refreshing drink balances sweetness, citrus brightness, and the smoky or sharp notes of the base spirit. It can be garnished with guava or lime wedges for presentation.
