The Clover Margarita: a twist on St. Patrick's Day drinks

THE WOODLANDS, Texas –– St. Patrick’s Day is coming up and while that might mean a lot of Guinness and whiskey for many grown-ups, we’re willing to share a fun creation:

The Clover Margarita.

Here’s what you’ll need for this Mexican-inspired drink:

Ingredients:

Tequila (we like Herradura Silver): 2 oz.

Lime juice: 3/4 oz.

Simple syrup: 3/4 oz.

Cucumber: 4 discs

Mint: 6-8 leaves


Method:

1). Place cucumber and mint into a shaker tin and crush gently with a muddler.
2). Add remaining ingredients and cubed ice.
3). Shake vigorously, then strain into a chilled rocks glass rimmed with salt.
4). Garnish with a mint leaf.
5) Enjoy (I don’t think we have to tell you that).
