Harvey Nichols New Arrivals Tommy’s Margarita Cocktail 135ml

Tasting Notes

Welcome to the future of cocktails. A pre-made Tommy’s Margarita so good, it’s almost as if Julio Bermejo had mixed it for you personally.

Small enough to easily fit in the fridge, this cute metal bottle contains a single-serving mixture of AquaRiva’s award-winning Tequila Blanco from the Jalisco highlands, AquaRiva’s flavoursome single-ingredient agave syrup and a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice. There’s nothing weird, no preservatives and no widgets; just a little bit of air in the top so that when you shake it, it gets a proper mix. The result is a bar-quality cocktail at home, without all that clackety noise and without having to make sure your ice cube trays are full, you have all the ingredients and you can find the cocktail shaker. Simply chill it right down, shake vigorously for five seconds to aerate and mix, then pour the contents into a chilled Martini glass or ice-filled tumbler. Garnish with a lime wedge if you’re feeling fancy.

The Tommy’s Margarita was created in the late 1980s by Julio Bermejo and named after his family’s Yucatán restaurant in San Francisco, which is famed for its Mexican food, margaritas and extensive Tequila list. Margarita is Spanish for ‘Daisy’, and Daisy cocktails were a style of drink dating back to the Victorian era, made by mixing citrus juice with a sweetening syrup or liqueur and a base spirit. So, Margaritas are thought to be an agave-based twist on an ancient classic. The highly knowledgeable Julio took the Margarita back to basics, ditching the orange liqueur and focussing on the agave flavour. There’s nowhere to hide with a Tommy’s Margarita, so the ingredients have to be top quality, which is why we opted for Cleo Rocos’ intense, spicy and tropical 100% Blue Weber Agave Tequila. It tastes like the first day of the summer holidays. Serve your Tommy’s Margarita alongside totopos and salsa, tacos or Harvey Nichols Mexican Snack Mix.
