Elderflower Margarita
The Elderflower Margarita reimagines the iconic tequila cocktail with a delicate, floral twist. Here, smooth Reposado tequila is shaken with fresh lime juice and a hint of agave syrup, then topped with Double Dutch Elderflower Tonic for a light, sparkling finish. Served in a coupe glass, this Margarita variation is refined, refreshing, and perfect for when you want something familiar but with a fragrant edge.
Why We Love the Elderflower Margarita
This cocktail is a beautiful balance of tangy citrus, subtle sweetness, and soft floral bubbles. The Reposado tequila provides gentle warmth and depth, while the elderflower tonic elevates the classic Margarita profile with a light, botanical sparkle. The result is a cocktail that feels bright, fresh, and just a little bit special — ideal for summer evenings, brunches, or any occasion where you want to impress with simplicity.
The Elderflower Margarita can be served with or without a salted rim, depending on your mood. Either way, it’s a refreshing take that’s as easy to make as it is to enjoy.
