Filled with vibrant colors and imbued with flavors of the desert, this Margarita riff could quench the thirst of any weary traveler. Crisp Don Julio Blanco Tequila is backed with the tart punch of lime and pomegranate juice but is succulently balanced with agave nectar (which comes from the desert plant of the same name) and orange liqueur.
