The warm weather this weekend in New York City put me in the mood for margaritas. This, combined with the 5 hours of pre-Kentucky Derby coverage, inspired me to make a mint version of a cucumber, jalapeño, cilantro margarita that I used to enjoy back in San Antonio. Here is the result.

In your Boston Shaker, muddle:

• ~5 / 6 slices - Cucumber
• ~8 - Mint leaves
• 1.5 Tbsp - Agave Nectar (I used 2 Tbsp and it seemed a bit sweet)

Add the juice of 1 lime and 4oz tequila (white).

Shake with ice then strain into 2 glasses. Garnish with mint and cucumber.

Enjoy.
