Instructions
For the rhubarb syrup
- Follow the recipe instructions for my rhubarb simple syrup to make the rhubarb syrup.
- You can leave out the peppercorns if you prefer, but infusing the syrup with peppercorns will greatly deepen the flavor of this syrup.
- Let the syrup cool to room temperature, or chill in the fridge before using.
- This syrup makes 1½ – 1¾ cups of syrup, which should be enough for 12 drinks.
Rhubarb margarita
- OPTIONAL - In a small mortar and pestle, crush the peppercorns until finely ground.
- Mix the peppercorn and fine sea salt at a 1:2 ratio, in a small saucer or plate. If you don’t want pepper, you can use plain salt instead.
- Cut up a lime and rub the lime along the rim of the serving glasses. Dip the rims in the salt or salt and pepper mixture.
- In a cocktail shaker, place all the ingredients for the margarita.
- Add more rhubarb syrup if you'd like your margarita to be sweeter.
- Add a generous amount of ice to the cocktail. Either stir the cocktail well to mix, OR close the shaker with a lid and shake the contents to mix well.
- Strain the mixture into two prepared cocktail glasses that have a few ice cubes in them. Garnish with a slice of lime, and serve immediately.
