May 1-The Californian Margarita

The Californian Margarita was created by Andrew Gelb, who created this cocktail in the comments section for the margarita page on Difford’s Guide. The website named this cocktail after him as he was a self proclaimed “Long Time Californian”. He has 3 main cocktail recipes on his porfile which is linked here https://www.diffordsguide.com/profile/jWq20E.

This coktail was judged by my parents to start off this summer and they agreed on a collective 72 score with my father scoring it 71 and my mother a 73. You can find the entire score sheet here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o8hURe3519XPkjS2EsXTKcnu6O44kdc_syPNbWWiOck/edit?usp=sharing. The most impressive thing about this cocktail is that my father (a known agave hater) went in for a second sip, that’s how good this is for anyone.
