The Margarita, or An Earthy Mystery

Americans drink a lot of Margaritas. While the Margarita makes up eighteen percent of the mixed drinks ordered in the United States, tequila represents only six percent of the domestic spirits market. Unfortunately, we drink a lot of bad Margaritas too. Neon colored, super-sweet, artificially flavored, poorly made, cheap ingredient, frozen-slushy Margaritas surely account for most of those eighteen percent.

Perhaps one reason that Americans drink a lot of bad Margaritas is that we seem to have no idea of its origin. There are theories (among others) that Dallas socialites, Peggy Lee, Mexican (or Irish, or Texan) bartenders, German ambassador’s daughters or Ziegfeld Follies dancers all have a hand in the drink.

    If your other ingredients aren't quite up to snuff, a drop of absinthe instead of the Peychaud's makes this drink something special.

    Great funky low-abv cocktail

    There are a bunch of arugla gimlets out there! Back Bar (Somerville) has one called just "Arugula Gimlet" with basically the same receipt but with symple syrup instead of agave. Leah Hall has one (also called Roquette) but with honey syrup and slight more lime & syrup.

    Very good. Split base works well, while many cognac primary spirit cocktails are some how off. I used Cocchi di Torino for vermouth. The rye and lemon zest complement one another. The first time I made this I grabbed the Laird's Bonded (the Rittenhouse bottle is usually in front of it...) and didn't realize until I had poured. Considering my options, I decided orange peel would work better with the apple, and it did. In fact, my wife prefers this more fruit-forward variation.
