His and Her Margaritas
Gina: I love a little bit of whimsy, and what better time for that than when you are kicking back with your man enjoying a cocktail? I didn’t think Pat would be too keen on sipping a pink drink, so I made his bright blue. Both variations are potent and delish, so just pick the flavor (or color) that suits your mood (or matches your shoes or your handbag . . .).
Cooks' Note
Sanding sugar has a slightly larger grain than granulated sugar, and it’s got a great sparkle to it. It’s available in assorted colors at baking supply stores, or online at, among other sites, www.kingarthurflour.com.
