Ingredients
Rhubarb Syrup
- 8 8 cups chopped rhubarb fresh or frozen
- 3 3 cups water
- 2 2 cups sugar
Rhubarb Margarita
- Himilayan salt see notes
- 2 2 ounces white tequila
- 1 1 ounce lime juice
- 1 1 ounce rhubarb syrup
- Lime slices and rhubarb to garnish
Instructions
- Begin by making the rhubarb syrup. Simmer the rhubarb and water in a small, covered pot for 10 minutes. Crush the rhubarb gently with a spoon to release all of the flavor. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve then return the syrup to the pot. Add the sugar and stir until it dissolves, about 2 minutes. Let the rhubarb syrup cool completely before using it.
- Run a cut piece of lime around the rim of a rocks glass then dip the wet rim into salt. Fill the glass with ice.
- Add the tequila, lime juice, and rhubarb syrup to the glass and stir.
- Garnish with a lime slice and strips of rhubarb.

Notes
- We love the look of pink Himalayan salt with this margarita, but regular sea salt works well, too. Avoid using boxed table salt as the flavor is too strong.

- You will have enough rhubarb syrup to make several margaritas. Or try using some of it to make a rhubarb mojito or some rhubarb lemonade!
