DEREK’S 1800 MARGARITA

DIFFICULTY: Drink more than one of these, and nothing else will matter. EVERYTHING will either become easy, or get hard as fuck.

TIME: 3:12

What you’ll need from the cupboard: A BIG margarita glass. A cocktail shaker.

What you’ll need from the pantry: 1800 tequila. Simple syrup. Lime juice. Triple Sec Orange Liquor. Margarita salt. Limes.

* * *

Slice a lime in 1/4s. Take one of the sections and run the raw fruit side around the rim of the glass. Dip the rim of the glass in the margarita salt.

Set aside.

Add 3 shots of tequila, 6 shots of lime juice, 2 shots of Triple Sec, and a half a shot of simple syrup to the shaker. Fill with ice.

Shake. Shake, shake.

Add fresh ice to your margarita glass.

Dump the entire content of the shaker (through the strainer) into your glass. It better be a biggun.

Be careful. This drink tastes normal, but it’s not even close.

Jess can drink one, and she’s shit-faced.

Derek, on the other hand, can drink a dozen (he really can) and walk away like it’s time for church.

A surefire winner on a hot summer day. The Key is in the 1800. It’s the only tequila in Derek’s arsenal.

Enjoy.
