Ruby Red Margarita

Mezcal
Prep time: 5 mins
Author: The Bar Team
Two glasses of red cocktail garnished with orange slices and rosemary, surrounded by ice, cranberries, a cocktail strainer, shaker, and jigger on a dark surface.

Perhaps the cocktail most synonymous with summer is the margarita. Luckily, the beverage’s penchant for customization makes it easy to modify for the autumn and winter seasons. When Casamigos Mezcal is combined with Gamay, a light-bodied red wine bursting with flavors of cranberry and red currant, the herbal aromas of the agave spirit are enhanced, bringing out the thyme, mint and licorice.
