💀Marg de los Muertos🍊

A Kiss from the Afterlife 🌼

Some cocktails are simply too good to rest in peace.

Día de los Muertos is a time to celebrate life, remember loved ones, and embrace the vibrant traditions that make this holiday so special. And what better way to join the celebration than with a cocktail that brings a little life to the afterlife?

Meet the Marg de los Muertos: A Kiss from the Afterlife...a sparkling, citrus-forward tequila cocktail featuring blood orange, fresh lime, and a double dose of bitters. It's bright, refreshing, a little mysterious, and dangerously easy to enjoy.

Inspired by the classic margarita but with a playful twist, this cocktail combines regular tequila with lime-flavored tequila for an extra burst of citrus. Fresh orange juice brings a touch of sweetness, while orange and Angostura bitters add depth and a subtle spiced finish. A splash of Trader Joe's Blood Orange & Orange Juice Seltzer Water brings everything together with a lively sparkle.

The result? A vibrant orange cocktail with just enough complexity to keep you coming back for another sip.

Whether you're hosting a Día de los Muertos celebration, enjoying a festive fall evening, or simply looking for an excuse to raise a glass, this cocktail is ready to bring a little spirit to your spirits.

After all, some things are worth coming back from the dead for.

Sir Shaker's Tips

• Make it festive: Add a black salt or Tajín rim for a dramatic Día de los Muertos presentation.

• Want more citrus? Express an orange peel over the finished cocktail to release its aromatic oils.

• Prefer it stronger? Reduce the seltzer or serve it without the bubbles for a more spirit-forward variation.
