Ep. 4: You’re te-killin’ me smalls - The Margarita

We are not sure what’s more messed up, the history of the Margarita or the fact that too many are made with plastic bottles of neon margarita mix. In this episode, Uncle Brad tries to decode the history of the margarita while giving listeners the finer points on making this popular classic the RIGHT way. Of course, Julianna brings “it” and teaches listeners how to make the margarita, the JULES way. Both are delicious, both will level up your home bartending game.  Margarita: Reposado tequila  Limes  Orange liqueur Salt (coarse / flakes)  Sugar (if wanting to add a bit of simple syrup - to taste only) Ice Rocks glass Boston Shaker  Hawthron strainer  Jigger Citrus Squeezer Jules Zhuzhed up Margarita Here’s what you’ll need that wasn’t on Brad’s List: Tequila, preferably a blanco or a Mezcal Dried Hibiscus Flowers Cinnamon sticks Ground cinnamon Dehydrated Lime Wheel The Art of Drinking IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast  Jules IG: @join_jules TikTok: @join_jules  Website: joinjules.com Brad  IG: @cigarsnvino This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast IG: @reddrockmusic www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
