Sage & Pear Margarita

Sage & Pear Margarita

This version of a spicy marg is bursting with flavors that’ll make you say “WOW!” and knock the socks off your family and friends. It’s bold, unexpected, and dangerously sippable. Kashmiri Honey gives this drink a mild kick without packing too much heat, while sage adds a touch of velvety eucalyptus to the peppery, vanilla-scented reposado tequila. It’s a flavour combo that feels fresh, cozy, and just a little bit fancy. Your heart will sing and your mouth will thank you.
