Champagne Margaritas

Yesterday we celebrated our second wedding anniversary! And what better cocktail to celebrate with, than these Champagne Margaritas?

Fatima and I met eight years ago when we were students at Hofstra University. The rest is history. And here we are celebrating a wedding anniversary! I can’t believe how fast these last two years have flown by since our wedding.

In our photos, we used a souvenir margarita glass we got while on our [second] honeymoon in Cabo. About a week before our wedding, a hurricane devastated Los Cabos and the surrounding areas. So we diverted our honeymoon to Martha’s Vineyard, where we spent a much needed, relaxing week exploring the island. The following year, we were able to get out to Cabo and soak up the sun!

1. Add all ingredients (except for champagne) into a shaker.
2. Fill with ice.
3. Shake 10 times. Do this too much and it’ll be too watery.
4. Pour over ice and garnish with a lime.
5. Add in champagne, a shot or as much as you want!

These champagne margaritas are just margaritas on the rocks with a splash of champagne. Adding in the champagne gives the margarita a hint of fizz and brightens up the cocktail. These would be perfect for our next brunch. Let us know what you think!
