We came up with our Skinny Dip Prosecco Margarita recipe when we were first planning our launch party. Living in Texas sparked my love of tequila and we wanted to bring a little Texas flare to our launch. I never would have thought to put Prosecco in a margarita, but Sarah had the inspired idea and I crafted the recipe around it.
Keeping true to our Austin, Texas roots we recommend using 512 Blanco Tequila. I usually prefer the taste of a blanco tequila – I think it blends a bit nicer than a gold tequila (gold tequilas are usually aged in barrels and are bolder).
For sweetness, I always add a splash of fresh orange juice to my margaritas. It adds a little freshness and reduces the amount of agave or simple syrup you need. The Prosecco also has a bit of sweetness, so keep this in mind when you’re making the margarita pre-Prosecco. Everyone has slightly different taste buds so I always recommend testing out your amounts of agave and orange juice to match your preferences.
Serving size: 2
Ingredients
3 oz tequila blanco
2 oz Cointreau or Triple Sec
4 oz lime juice
2 oz orange juice
1-2 tsp agave (can sub for simple syrup or sugar)
1 bottle of Valevino Skinny Dip Prosecco (chilled)
Salt & limes for serving
Step 1:
Combine tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, orange juice, and agave a shaker or pitcher with a bit of ice.
Step 2:
Prep your glasses. For salting the rim I run a lime along the top of the glass and then dip in into salt (usually spread on a small plate).
Step 3:
Fill your glasses halfway with the margarita mixture before adding an equal amount of Prosecco. (The result should be 1/2 margarita, 1/2 Prosecco)
Step 4:
Garnish with a lime & enjoy!
Cheers!
