Recipe by D Lanzet & Lexy Rae
Orange and chocolate go together like peanut butter and jelly, and this margarita recipe is like the PB&J of margs. The warm vanilla notes of reposado tequila accentuates the flavours of zesty orange, chocolatey mole bliss, and perfectly sweet heat from the Nora Chilli Flakes. The best part perhaps? A sidecar of dry curacao adds an additional layer of orangey-ness that takes this recipe to new levels of yum!
