Cucumber Mint Margarita Recipes

CUCUMBER-MINT MARGARITA

Cucumber-Mint Margarita image

This recipe is sponsored by Cointreau. We take advantage of the end-of-summer abundance of cucumbers and fresh mint and update The Original Margarita, one of the most popular classic cocktails in the country. The recipe has been around for over 70 years and is still made with just three simple ingredients: Cointreau, tequila and lime. In this version, we start by muddling the cucumber and mint until both are fragrant and the mint has released its natural oils. Cointreau elevates this cocktail with its highly aromatic yet balanced flavor profile. Once shaken with plenty of ice and served in a glass with a salt rim, it is the most refreshing cocktail you will have this season.

JALAPENO AND CUCUMBER MARGARITA

Jalapeno and Cucumber Margarita image

Nothing tastes better than tequila and jalapeno; the cucumber adds a freshness that helps to mute the jalapeno's bite. The longer it chills, the more jalapeno and cucumber infuses into the tequila. Serve over ice in a salt-rimmed glass, garnished with cucumber slices.

Prepare the glasses: Pour some coarse kosher salt onto a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each 8-ounce glass and dip in salt.
Make the cucumber juice: Add the peeled and cut cucumbers in a large blender and puree for about 45-60 seconds, until smooth and completely blended. Pour the blended cucumber juice through a fine mesh strainer and into a bowl or measuring cup to separate the pulp from the juice. Use a spoon to stir the pulp mixture around in the strainer to make sure you get as much juice as possible.
Muddle the jalapeno (optional): Add 1 or 2 jalapeno slices into a pitcher (or glass). Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down onto the jalapeno slices a few times until very fragrant.
Mix everything together: Add the cucumber juice (1 1/4 cup for a pitcher or 1/4 cup for a single drink), tequila, triple sec and lime juice. Stir to combine and taste. If you prefer your margaritas on the sweeter side, add in some of the optional agave nectar or simple syrup to your liking. Start with a small amount and then add more as necessary.
