Recipe // Harvest Margarita
I get it: margarita stans are a devoted lot. In this spirit, my husband created his very own Thanksgiving-inspired Harvest Margarita recipe, which has the flavors of fall but the soul of a margarita. If mezcal isn’t your jam, 1) we need to talk, and 2) you can swap the mezcal for a reposado tequila. This is one substitution The Boss will allow!
