The temperatures are finally getting really summery and we’re probably all looking forward to balmy summer evenings. Whether at home or on the terrace of the hotel bar – a fresh cocktail (or two or three) is definitely part of our idea of a perfect summer evening. At the same time, nothing screams summer quite like Margarita. That’s why today we’re introducing you to the Falkensteiner Hotel Kronplatz‘s signature cocktail: Ginger Margarita. The classic margarita with homemade ginger juice, which you can easily recreate at home.
