Austin Cocktails Bergamot Orange Margarita

Premium Tequila + Natural Bergamot Orange + Austin Cocktails Natural Triple Sec + Natural Lime + Organic Agave Nectar Most people have a reference point for how a top-shelf margarita should taste, and Austin Cocktails decided they would not bring one to market until they made something extraordinary. Across three years of flavor exploration, the breakthrough came upon discovering the extraordinarily unique bergamot orange. This winter-grown, Italian orange is more sour than sweet and interacts with the tequila in the most sophisticated of ways. The natural bergamot orange preserves the deep taste of the tequila, but perfectly softens its most pucker-inducing layer. To keep both the taste and body from getting weighed down by sweet ingredients, Austin Cocktails created its own natural triple sec with dramatically less sugar. To round out the cocktail just a touch, Austin Cocktails upgraded to an exotic lime with less bite than the traditional Persian lime. Think smoother essential oils from the rind and bright citrus balancing the smokiness of the tequila. Organic, golden agave gives the cocktail just the right amount of body. Rather than taking the margarita in a wholly different, flavored direction, the bergamot orange provides slightly more complex accents to the orange notes inherent to the classic margarita, while the brighter citrus and lower sugar produce a cleaner, smoother finish.
