It's margarita time. 

We're using our Derek Wolf Adobo Honey spicy sweet blend and whipping up a simple syrup to add a deliciously new flavor dimension to your typical marg. 

This simple syrup is a great drink staple, especially for summer; adjust the amount of Adobo Honey you use depending on how much you love that slightly-spicy, smoky taste.

      1. Boil equal parts water and sugar on your stove. Once sugar has been dissolved, add 1-2 tablespoons of Derek Wolf Adobo Honey blend (add more if you love a smoky taste).

      2. Stir until Derek Wolf Adobo Honey blend has been fully dissolved into sugar-water mixture.
      3. Remove from heat and store in the fridge to cool down. You’ll want your simple syrup to cool down to room temperature before adding to drinks.
