Domaine de Canton, an aromatic, small-batch ginger liqueur made in France, adds a spicy note to this fruity twist on the classic margarita from New York City’s Le Bernardin, where the drink was dubbed “Le Mexique.” While optional, a garnish of thin dark chocolate shavings pairs surprisingly well with the subtly sweet, silky smooth cocktail.
