Lambert's BBQ is a popular and delicious restaurant in Austin. It is always packed. If you don't make a reservation, you are likely out of luck. Example last night, a few of us went w/o reservations thinking we would sit at the bar (there are two in the restaurant) with a drink and wait for a table.....non! The hour was ~ 2 hours. Really? We elected to go elsewhere, but the point is, this is one yummy place. They have an interesting drink menu all around, but I have a slight obsession with the sour cherry margarita. Sounds weird, I know, but it is a nice balance between sweet and tart and the cherry is not overwhelming. And in a town where you can get some type of margarita (all claiming to be the best - ha!) on any corner, finding the truly unique and delicious variations can be work.
1 shot corazon blanco tequila
1 shot of cherry brandy (kirschwasser)
1 shot of Grand Marnier or cointreau or Paula's TX Orange.
1 tsp agave (+/- on
this one)
The juice of one half fresh lemon
Dash of Cherry Bitters
Shake with ice, pour over rocks or straight up (to preference).
I had tried various combinations of these ingredients before without pleasing success, but this combo was the hit. Yay!
