Dirty Margarita

My viral Dirty Margarita sure got a lot of people talking when I posted it on Instagram!
You’ve probably seen pickle margaritas out there (should I make that next?!) so I thought what about using olive brine? It turned out even better than I had hoped. I don’t even like olives — GASP — and I still liked this!
Since then, I’ve learned this is often called a Mexican Margarita in the land where it was created— Austin, Texas. I guess I have an excuse to plan a trip there now!
INGREDIENTS:
2 oz tequila
1 oz olive brine — or more, if you want to make it extra dirty!
1 oz orange liqueur
1/2 oz lime juice
1/2 oz agave
METHOD:
Add tequila, orange liqueur, olive brine, lime juice and agave to a cocktail shaker. Add ice, then shake until chilled.
Strain into a rocks glass filled with ice. Garnish with lots of olives, and enjoy.
