COCKTAIL RECIPE
Makes 1 cocktail
2 oz blanco or reposado tequila
2 oz fresh blood orange juice
3/4 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz allspice dram
1/4 oz agave syrup
Salt or coarse sugar, for the rim, optional
Blood orange slice and cinnamon stick, for garnish
Rim a wine glass or large coupe with salt or sugar, if using, and fill it with crushed ice. Add the tequila, blood orange juice, lime juice, allspice dram, and agave to a shaker with ice and shake for 10 to 12 seconds until very cold. Strain into the prepared glass and garnish with a blood orange slice and a cinnamon stick.
NOTES FROM THE BAR
Heads up: We may earn a small commission on products we’ve linked here. We only recommend the real-deal favorites from our kitchen.
Tequila Choice
Use Blanco for a bright, crisp margarita or Reposado for a warmer, rounder flavor that plays beautifully with the allspice dram.
Rim Options
This cocktail works with either a salt rim or a sugar rim. If you choose a sugar rim, you may want to skip or reduce the agave so the drink doesn’t lean too sweet.
Blood Orange Tip
Blood oranges vary in sweetness. If yours are very sweet, reduce the agave; if they’re tart, a touch extra may be perfect.
Allspice Dram
Allspice dram is potent. ½ oz is enough to bring warm holiday spice without overwhelming the citrus.
Ice Matters
Crushed ice gives this margarita its festive frostiness and softens the spices as it melts.
Batch for 6
12 oz tequila
12 oz blood orange juice
4½ oz lime juice
3 oz allspice dram
1½–2 oz agave (adjust to taste or eliminate if using sugar rims)
Shake each serving over ice before pouring.

A RITUAL WE RETURN TO
Our cocktails are part of something bigger for us. They’re the beginning of Date Nite, a connection-centered experience we created to help you slow down, share a meal, and enjoy time with the one you love.
Each Date Nite is thoughtfully planned for you, so you are not stuck deciding what to cook or how to pull the night together. We pair one cocktail with a complete menu, a simple flow from prep to plate, and small details that make the evening feel easy and connected from start to finish.
It is not about perfection. It is about presence, and creating space to reconnect, whether that is with your partner or simply with yourself, over a really good meal.
