Margarita

A fruit-forward RTD mocktail from A. Le Coq that takes the margarita name in a watermelon and lime direction rather than attempting any tequila substitute.

About This Drink

Rather than trying to recreate tequila without alcohol, this goes a different route entirely. Watermelon is the lead flavour, juicy and generous, with lime adding citric sharpness that keeps it from reading as a straight fruit drink. Apple juice concentrate sits behind both, adding body without announcing itself. The colour is a deep red from safflower. If you are expecting something that tastes like a classic margarita this will surprise you, but taken on its own terms it is a straightforward, accessible sweet-tart mocktail that works well cold.

Ingredients

Water, sugar, apple juice concentrate, carbon dioxide, citric acid, malic acid, juice and safflower concentrates, flavourings, stabilisers (E445, E414), preservatives (potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate)
