Winter Rita is a seasonal Margarita-style sour with tequila, Campari, citrus, rosemary syrup, and a light salt rim.
Lightly salt the rim of an old fashioned glass and fill it with fresh ice. Shake tequila, Campari, lime juice, orange juice, and rosemary syrup with ice, then strain over the prepared ice.
Serve in an old fashioned glass over ice with a light salt rim and no extra garnish.
Pair it with carnitas, roasted squash, grilled shrimp, bitter greens, or citrus desserts.
This is a contemporary winter Margarita riff using rosemary and Campari for herbal bitterness.
Best for winter parties, agave menus, and bitter-citrus sour service.
Tequila gives agave, Campari adds bitterness, lime and orange bring citrus, rosemary syrup adds herbal sweetness, and salt sharpens the drink.
Herbal, bitter, citrusy, and seasonal.
Use blood orange juice for a deeper winter-citrus profile.
