Don Julio’s Halftime Margarita

I personally believe that all American citizens should be required by law to drink nothing but beer on Super Bowl Sunday. However, those who insist on going the cocktail route can and should at least opt for something tasty, yet strong and tough. Like a Steeler. *cough*

THE HALFTIME MARGARITA

1 1/2 ounces Tequila Don Julio Blanco
2 1/2 ounces pomegranate juice
2 teaspoons fine sugar
1/2 ounce lime juice
Sugar (to rim glass)
1 lime wedge

• Combine Don Julio Blanco, pomegranate juice, fine sugar and lime juice in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake well.
• Rim margarita glass with sugar.
• Strain ingredients into margarita glass.
• Garnish with lime.
• Try not to get into any fights after the game cause you’re all, tequila’d up and ready to scrap. But do laugh at the people puking up their beer and wings while you enjoy your heart-healthy (pomegranate, hello) cocktail from a quiet corner. Everybody wins!
