Sauza Tequila Gold

"Double distilled for a smoother, more mellow character, Sauza Gold tequila is a taste of the unexpected. Its fresh agave flavor is clean and crisp with hints of sweet caramel and oaky softness; enjoy it straight as a cold shold, or discover how it lends its unique character to your favorite tequila cocktails."

This tequila works very well in Margaritas.
  • 4 cL tequila (Sauza Gold)
  • 2 cL freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 2 cL triple sec (Cointreau)
Shake hard the ingredients with ice. Strain into a half salt-rime cocktail glass.

I don't like when the glass is rimmed with a thick crust of salt. I prefer adding a thin layer of salt on just half of the rim so that I can alternate between a little bit of salt with a mouthfull of margarita and no salt at all.

40% ABV. Read more on Sauza website.
