Admiral Tucker's San Juan Blue Margarita

We're all headed up to the San Juans for what might just be the best vacation ever. Our friend Tucker is taking us out on the 46' Esprit de Mer. We'll be sailing around the San Juans taking in the sights and living the good life. Not bad.

For this weekend we came up with a signiture cocktail in honor of our Captian. I love margaritas, but they can be kind of messy to make. The last thing I wanted was a sticky cabin full of lime juice and simple syrup. The nice thing about this recipe is that it uses Blue Curacao which replaces the need for simple syrup. So one less chance to make a big sticky mess.



Combine all of these ingredients in a pitcher and serve in a salted tumbler with ice.

2 parts tequila
1 part triple sec
1 part blue curacao
1 part fresh squeezed lime juice. (absolutely no lime syrup)
lime wedges for garnish


ps. Drink responsibly and don't drink and sail.
