Oh sweet happy hour, how I love you. I had about half a container of sour cherries left over by the end of the week and decided that I’d take a stab at a cherry margarita of sorts. I pitted the cherries, then squished them through a strainer to get all the juice out. Then I got out my tequila and cointreau to add to the juice. I put that in a my shaker and got it all nice and mixed up. Before I poured it I dipped the rim of my glass in a mixture of sugar and salt to add a little pizazz. I poured the margarita, topped it off with a few mint leaves just for pretty’s sake and took a sip. Ahh yes, it hit the spot like a margarita always does.

I’m planning on one more market week meal that I’ll probably post Monday with an overview of the results of my little experiment. I hope you have a great weekend!

Cheers!
