These black and blue margaritas are made with fresh summer berries, lime juice, and a honey simple syrup!

Ingredients

For the margaritas:

  • ¼ cup fresh berries (I use a mix of blackberries and blueberries)
  • 2 ounces tequila blanco
  • 1 ounce fresh squeezed lime juice (from about 1 lime)
  • ¾ ounce honey simple syrup (recipe below)
  • Coarse salt (optional)

For the honey simple syrup:

  • ½ cup honey
  • ½ cup water

Instructions

  1. Muddle the berries in a tall cocktail shaker until they’re broken down and juicy. Add the remaining ingredients to the shaker and fill it with ice. Shake vigorously for about 20 seconds. Wipe the flesh of the lime around the rim of a margarita glass and dip the glass in salt, if desired. Fill  with ice and strain the chilled mixture into the prepared glass. Enjoy!

 

To make the simple syrup:

  1. Combine the honey and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir with a whisk until the honey is dissolved and then place in a small jar or heat-safe container to cool in the fridge. This can be made ahead and kept in the fridge for up to two weeks.
