Guavarita Cocktail!

In Southern California we are fortunate to have many exotic fruits growing in our own backyards—and sometimes our neighbors! This recipe was inspired by a friend’s tree-ripened Strawberry Guavas of which I created a most delicious jam, Guava LUV. The guavas are tart, sweet and add a unique fruity flavor to a Margarita.

Makes 1

Ingredients

1/2 oz fresh lemon juice

1 oz triple sec

1 1/2 oz your favorite tequila

1 T Guava LUV jam

Rock Sugar for Rim—optional

Preparation

Add the ingredients to a shaker and fill with ice.

Shake well and strain into a chilled martini glass or rocks glass filled with fresh ice.

Garnish with a fresh guava wheel & lemon twist.

For a slightly sweeter drink, add more Guava LUV to cocktail shaker before shaking.
