Casamigos Tequila Margarita – Inventive Culinary

The Casamigos Tequila Margarita is one among my favorites. A easy cocktail made with nice tequila and contemporary juices; it’s a favourite 12 months spherical.

I’ve a really previous reminiscence from my first expertise with a margarita and it was terrible! I blamed my lack of expertise with exhausting liquor however through the years I’ve on condition that youthful model of myself a break…I used to be proper to not prefer it. Fortunately issues modified and as we speak I add one other favourite to my repertoire, this Casamigos Tequila Margarita.

To be sincere, this publish is a repeat, a redo because it had been, of 1 that I did over 5 years in the past. The primary, effectively, really the ONLY motive I redo posts sometimes is as a result of the older photographs are terrible however sometimes something inside 5-6 years is appropriate. Besides this. I made these proper earlier than pals confirmed, the photographs had been rushed and effectively, they’ve all the time bugged me.

And that was not proper! Whereas my all-time favourite margarita is one with equally contemporary juices, it’s a little bit of a time hog, and this drink is my favourite go to after I’ve not acquired the time or I’m not within the temper for including strawberries, blackberries or extra. If that’s your factor although I’ve nonetheless acquired  you lined, try this publish for my 20 favourite margaritas!

Likelihood is that first marg was made with ‘gold’ tequila, prepared made candy and bitter combine and doubtless some bottled lime juice. Even pondering of it makes me cringe. I actually have come a good distance child and I really like margaritas in lots of varieties and fashions however I’ve to say, this Casamigos Tequila Margarita is easy, old-fashioned and actually pretty much as good as they arrive.

I bear in mind listening to a number of years again that George Clooney and his buddies Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman had joined forces to launch a tequila model referred to as Casamigos; a pleasant contraction of Casa (home) and Amigos (pals) – see, that 12 months of Spanish in sixth grade was price it!

Apparently sufficient their authentic intent was to not make one thing to be launched to the general public however merely to have the best-tasting, smoothest tequila to serve to household and pals.

Whereas that has modified with a shift to advertising and marketing to the general public for which we must be eternally grateful, the strategies and outcomes are nonetheless the identical and their course of is exclusive and devoted to retaining that high quality they cherished when simply sipping with pals of their properties in Mexico.

Made out of hand chosen 100% Blue Weber agaves which can be grown within the cool local weather of the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, they’ve a number of steps that make this product particular. The agave piñas are roasted in conventional brick ovens for 72 hours, whereas most others steam theirs for 7 hours.

Their Grasp Distiller makes use of a particular yeast mix leading to a constant, refined taste, not like the business yeasts others use and so they permit for additional gradual fermentation; utilizing an 80 hour fermentation course of in comparison with the typical of 48.

The top end result? What was lacking within the first margarita all these a few years in the past; a easy tequila with out the tough chew of cheaper manufacturers that endure from a faster course of and lack of growing old.

I made a decision to strive their favourite home margarita; it’s merely made with contemporary citrus juices together with agave nectar as an alternative of a easy syrup. I’ll use a easy syrup when combining fruits with my favourite margarita base however agave simply appears proper when making one thing that you simply would possibly discover in a Mexican casa.

I really feel I need to share with you my very own private historical past with George; certain, certain, I do know all girls love him however he and I’ve a historical past and effectively, I claimed him first.

Years in the past there was a tv present that aired on Saturday nights titled ‘Sisters.’ It was simply that; a sequence concerning the relationships of 4 sisters. Swoozie Kurtz, Sela Ward, Patricia Kalember and Julianne Phillips (Bruce Springsteen’s first spouse!).

I used to be a single mother and not using a private life…I imply none. I had no household to babysit or assist, so aside from these 4 days a month when their father faux parented, I by no means went out. My children wanted me and I each didn’t wish to go away them with a sitter, and even when I had needed to I couldn’t afford it!

So my Saturday nights had been tv viewing…cease, strive to not be too jealous! The final season I recall the character performed by Sela Ward met a man, a cop. She was a excessive spirited lady and seemingly discovered the appropriate man who might take care of it and love her again. And if she weren’t going to reciprocate I used to be obtainable however OK, I digress.

He was cute and, effectively, cute. I’ve included for you a scene of their first kiss (be nonetheless my coronary heart) however bear in mind most vividly the final episode of the season. The scene had him leaving their place and getting right into a automobile and when he began it, it blew up. OH NO…not my lover boy!!!

I used to be crushed and I do recall some tears. I’m not even certain I knew his actual identify however Falconer was lifeless; gone endlessly. Sob.

Quick ahead to the subsequent 12 months and all the thrill a couple of present referred to as ER and lo and behold, ‘Falconer’ was one of many primary characters, the requisite heartthrob; Dr. Doug Ross. Girls everywhere in the world swooned and that swooning has by no means stopped.

Nonetheless, I’ll all the time know he was mine first (and effectively, most likely a bunch of different lonely hearts girls at house with their children!). So we’ve form of come full circle…effectively in a really huge stretch of the creativeness not less than.

George married one other lady (What??) and I create cocktails and in that area we’re as soon as once more linked. Eat your hearts out…or possibly even higher; go forth and purchase a bottle of Casamigos Tequila and make one among these Casamigos Tequila Margaritas for your self?

He even signed my bottle. OK, his signature is on each bottle however nonetheless…it’s a extremely nice tequila and it is a terrific cocktail and I’ll nonetheless love him endlessly however now for various causes. Cheers!
