3/4 oz. pure, organic agave nectar
3/4 oz. pure spring water
Shake all ingredients with ice in a shaker. Strain over fresh ice into a Margarita glass or Old-Fashioned glass. Taste for balance.
Saladito:
2 oz. Del Maguey Vida Mescal
3/4 oz. Honey Syrup (3 parts clover honey to 1 part water)
3/4 oz. Fresh Lime Juice
Shake& Strain into a Cocktail Glass
Garnish: Sprinkle a little Cayenne& Salt on Top
Non-Alcohol Maid:
2 Cucumbers

1 oz. Purified Water
3/4 oz. Simple Syrup
