Celery Margarita Recipe

1. 1

   Place the chopped celery, lime juice, and simple syrup in a blender and blend on high until the stalks are completely broken down, about 30 seconds.

2. 2

   (You may need to stop the blender and smash the celery pieces down more to get the blade spinning again.)

3. 3

   Set a fine-mesh strainer over a 1-cup measuring cup and pour in the celery mixture.

4. 4

   Using a ladle, press on the solids to extract as much juice as possible.

5. 5

   (You should have about 6 ounces of liquid.)

6. 6

   Discard the solids in the strainer.

7. 7

   Place 4 martini or coupe glasses in the freezer to chill.

8. 8

   Place the celery juice mixture, tequila, and Lillet in a 1-quart container and stir to combine.

9. 9

   Place 6 ounces of the margarita in a cocktail shaker.

10. 10

    Fill the shaker halfway with ice and shake vigorously until the outside is frosty, about 30 seconds.

11. 11

    Strain the contents into 1 of the chilled glasses, garnish with a celery stalk, and serve.

    Repeat to make 3 more margaritas.
