Raspberry Margarita

 

Raspberry Margarita

This cocktail was inspired by the “Parasol Up” Lounge at the Wynn. It’s crisp and not very sweet, perfect after spending a day in the yard working. It was a welcome sight after we walked the Vegas strip in the hot sun. Margarita’s and heat just seem to go together.
