Ingredients

1 1/2 ounces blanco tequila 

1 ounce ginger liqueur, such as Domaine de Canton 

2 ounces chilled unsweetened pure tart-cherry juice (we like Ocean Spray) 

1/2 ounce fresh lime juice 

Luxardo cherry and a fresh ginger slice, for garnish 

Preparation

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add tequila, ginger liqueur, cherry juice, and lime juice. Gently stir about 10 seconds. Strain into a chilled coupe glass; garnish with cherry and ginger slice. Serve immediately.

Use unsweetened 100 percent tart cherry juice in this Margarita for true fruit flavor. Look for it near other shelf-stable juices or in the refrigerated-drink aisle.
