The Cocktail That’s Going to Make Me Eat More Salads. By Madelyn Miller, the TravelLady |
| |||||
|
The Golden Margarita is a blend of Jose Cuervo Gold and Grand Marnier that makes serving Margaritas a snap. A simple shake with ice and—voila!—a Golden Margarita. The combination of the rich orange flavor of Grand Marnier, the refreshing flavor of lime and the premium quality of Jose Cuervo Gold Tequila delivers a delightful, easy and upscale cocktail indulgence. This is one of the many entertaining tips that Sandra Lee, of Semi-Homemade fame, told a group of lifestyle and food editors at a recent party in New York. I was one of the lucky ones invited to taste the delicious Golden Margaritas. I’ll never forget that first taste. I’ll also remember her suggestions for other uses for Joe Cuervo’s Golden Margarita. She said you could use it as a salad dressing. Nutritionist need to take note: Get people to eat more greens by pouring Jose Cuervo’s Golden Margarita on a salad. I think Sandra Lee is a genius. Even my mother might agree. If you haven’t seen her on the Food Network, Sandra Lee is a New York Times best-selling author and nationally acclaimed lifestyle expert. Her cookbooks offer amazing meals in minutes, fabulous food fixings and sensational, yet simple, style ideas. You can see more of her sensible solutions online at www.semihomemade.com And soon she will be coming out with a cocktail book. I can’t wait to hear what other healthy ideas she has for cocktails. Maybe with breakfast cereal. But I digress from the marvelous Golden Margarita. The Margarita Cocktail was created in 1938 in honor of a beautiful Mexican showgirl named Rita de la Rose. A bartender, inspired by her electrifying performance, improvised a cocktail to capture her heart with Cuervo and the flavor of Mexican limones. Ever since then the Cuervo Margarita continues to capture hearts around the world. Jose Cuervo is the largest producer of Tequila in Mexico and around the world, exporting more than 50 million liters annually. In addition to Jose Cuervo Golden Margarita, the Jose Cuervo portfolio of Tequilas includes Jose Cuervo Especial, Jose Cuervo Clásico, Jose Cuervo Black Medallion, Jose Cuervo Tradicional, Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia, Authentic Jose Cuervo Margaritas and Jose Cuervo Margarita Mix. For more information, visit www.cuervo.com. They probably make enough Tequilla to cover all the salads in the world. Warning to lettuce growers: You might need to increase your crops. |

My mother stressed vegetables and salads. She never offered me
cocktails. If only she had known about Jose Cuervo’s Golden
Margarita, those salads might have seemed more tempting.
