Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 oz lime juice
  • 4 oz silver tequila
  • 2 oz Cointreau
  • Salt for the rim
  • Ice
  • Extra blueberries for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Muddle the blueberries in a glass, pressing the skins as much as possible to extract color. Strain using a fine mesh sieve. Discard (or keep for another use) the pulp and skins.
  • Pour the blueberry juice into a cocktail shaker. Add the lime juice, tequila, Cointreau and ice. Shake vigorously.
  • Prepare the rim of the glass by rubbing it with a lime wedge. Pour some salt onto a small plate. Dip the rim of the glass into the salt to coat.
  • Fill the glass with ice. Pour the cocktail over the ice into each glass. Garnish with fresh blueberries.

Notes

  • Blueberry juice can be kept for up to a week in a container in the refrigerator.
  • Trade the tequila for mezcal for a smoky margarita.
