It’s safe to say that the Margarita cocktail is a cult classic – it’s not going anywhere. But that doesn’t mean you can’t switch up the Margarita ingredients! You might think tequila is essential to the drink, but our Extra Margarita cocktail variation is guaranteed to hit the spot. The secret to a perfect Margarita? Fresh lime juice – it’s essential. While the natural pairing for this Margarita cocktail variation is naturally Chivas Extra 13 Tequila Cask*, you can use any Chivas blend you like. *A portion of this blended Scotch whisky is finished in tequila casks.
