Let’s face it — summer chill-out sessions could always use a good marg. Our friends at Poquitos in Capitol Hill provided us with a delicious, simple recipe that you can make at home using fruit from your local farmers market and decent (but affordable) tequila.

If you want an expert to mix it up, Poquitos is serving it throughout July — you can find it on our list of Seattle Drink Up specials. But here’s how to play bartender on your own.

Poquitos Peach Margarita

  • 1.5 oz Javelina Blanco
  • .75 oz Lime Juice
  • 2 oz peach purée (2.5 parts sliced yellow peaches to 1 part simple syrup blended and strained)
  • Shake over ice and serve in a tajín salt rimmed glass with a lime
