The Story Behind The Blackberry Margarita
Blackberry season starts in early spring, and since Margaritas are too delicious to relegate to summer alone, why not spice things up a bit? Not only does the Blackberry Margarita embrace the juicy tartness of fresh blackberries, complemented with notes of spiced cinnamon.
For this unique spin, add lemon juice, muddled fresh blackberries, cinnamon powder and agave to PATRÓN Añejo. With rich notes of oaked wood, vanilla, and honey, the Añejo expression is the perfect tequila to enjoy blackberries throughout the cooler months, as we’re sure farmers and harvesters hoped and intended.
