How to Make a Smoky Margarita

There are endless ways to craft a margarita. Whether you prefer yours salty, slightly sweet, a little spicy, or smoky, the quality of the final product that's poured into your glass depends on one thing: the tequila.

Tequila Herradura Silver has notes of citrus, cooked agave, and vanilla&mdashnatural flavors with a smooth finish that pair nicely with your most creative margarita variations.

Not sure where to start? Definitely go with Horseshoe Margarita: It's two parts Tequila Herradura Silver, one part freshly squeezed lime juice, and agave nectar to your liking. Consider it your new go-to original margarita recipe.

Ready to heat things up? Use the the Horseshoe as a base and throw in some pleated scotch whiskey (trust us) for a controlled level of smoke that won't drown out the tequila. Because as much as we love an original margarita, adding a smoky flavor is what really takes it to the next level.

A Little Background

So, how does one land on scotch whiskey in a margarita? Using wood chips or even Mezcal to create the "smoky" aspect in a cocktail can actually overpower a margarita, resulting in losing the taste of the most integral part&mdashthe tequila itself.

To avoid this cocktail faux pas, add BenRiach Curiositas (a pleated scotch whiskey with stone fruit, honey, and spice) for a nice, controlled level of smoke without compromising the natural taste of Tequila Herradura Silver.

The Horseshoe Margarita, made with tequila, lime, and agave nectar, is a versatile base recipe you can use to craft any margarita to your liking. For a spicy spin, add fresh mango and chili powder. Need something refreshing? Top your base recipe off with watermelon juice.
