You’ll immediately be hit by a waft of fresh pastries and just-picked berries on the nose, with a slight prickle of baking spices. Tart berry and robust roasted agave notes quickly unfold into a gentle gingerbread flavour, followed by another truckload.
“According to some, the modern Margarita might well have been an evolution of the 19th Century ‘Daisy’, which is a typically a ‘sour’ featuring an orange liqueur, grenadine or berry liqueur. However true as this may be, by 1946 a combination of tequila, blackcurrant, lime and ginger was cemented as a classic Tiki combination that kept reappearing in Trader Vic’s books with the underrated tequila classic, El Diablo.”
