ABOUT
This drink was created by fellow cocktail creator and photographer Claire (@shaker_and_twist). This is a fun margarita riff where the forbidden juice, Yellow Chartreuse, helps as a sweetener in addition to providing that herbal complexity. The chile adds a little bite that isn’t too overpowering. This is a good one! Cheers y’all!
