Our Favorite Tequila Recipes
The Classic Margarita
1 ¾ oz Blanco Tequila, 1oz Lime Juice, 3/4oz Triple Sec
Combine into a shaker, and shake vigorously over ice and then strain into your glass. If you’re not into squeezing limes, see below.
Le Marg
3oz Le Moné, 1oz Blanco Tequila
Even we were shocked at how simple, easy, and excellent this margarita was! Just two ingredients makes a perfect margarita every time. Garnish with a salt rim and slice of lime and serve over ice. Longing for your Triple Sec? Try orange bitters instead.
Our Favorite Bourbon Recipes
Bourbon Lemonade
1.5oz Bourbon, 4oz Lemonade
This one is really just that simple. Garnish with mint for a little something extra. But if you’re not into super sugary lemonade or fake sweeteners (or want to add more alcohol to your alcohol rather than dilute it) the recipe below is the one for you!
Le Derby
3oz Le Moné, 1oz Bourbon
The essence of a bourbon lemonade! A spin on the bourbon classic that makes it easier to enjoy than ever. Enjoy the aromatic Meyer lemon and fresh citrus pop from Le Moné without all the squeezing and juicing — we’ve got that part covered for you.
Our Favorite GIN Recipes
The Best Tom Collins (according to VinePair)
2oz Gin, 1oz Lemon Juice, 1oz Simply Syrup, Soda as Needed
Another elegantly simple classic. But we’re up for the challenge. Why add sugar when you can use Agave instead — its sweeter than sugar, so we can use less to achieve the perfect sweetness. You still get a perfect cocktail without all headache (pun intended).
Le Collins
3oz Le Moné, 1oz Gin, Soda optional
By now you see where we’re going with this. Gin + lemon + simple syrup = Tom Collins. Gin + Le Moné = Le Collins. FIFY, VinePair.
Bonus Cocktail: Le Bitters
Le Moné Over Ice, Dash of orange, aromatic, or any specialty bitters you desire, topped with shaved nutmeg.
In essence, this one is the most simple of all. It’s amazing what bitters can do to transform the experience. In combination with the nutmeg, this is the most refreshing seasonal cocktail you’ll have this winter.
