Makes 2 cocktails

Ingredients

  • 4 oz. (1/2 cup) Cranberry Simple Syrup

  • 1 oz. cranberry-pear white balsamic

  • Tajin seasoning or plain margarita salt

  • 4 oz. (1/2 cup) blanco tequila

Directions

  1. Salt the rims:

    Place 1 ounce of the Cranberry Pear White Balsamic in a small shallow dish; place Tajin/margarita salt in a separate shallow dish. Invert two glasses into balsamic to coat rims. Place each inverted glass into spice/salt to coat the rims. Set aside.
