What Is A Chambord Margarita?

A margarita is a popular Mexican cocktail consisting of tequila, triple sec, and lime juice. Some margarita recipes include simple syrup as well and are often served with salt on the rim of the glass. Margaritas can either be served shaken with ice, without ice, or blended with ice.

The margarita is one of the world’s most popular cocktails and without a doubt the most popular tequila-based drinks.

This Chambord infused Raspberry Margarita is a refreshing craft cocktail that we love to serve during berry season in the summer. It is best enjoyed on the hot sun on a pretty patio.

Our take on the classic Mexican cocktail features that traditional tequila muddled with fresh lime juice. The drink is elevated with tart cranberry juice and luxurious French Chambord Black Raspberry Liqueur. A perfectly balanced sipper worth puckering up for.

Serve Chambord Margaritas garnished with a lime wheel and cocktail pick skewered with fresh raspberries.

What Is Chambord Liqueur?

Chambord is a 16.5% abv raspberry flavoured liqueur modelled after a liqueur produced in the Loire Valley of France during the late 17th-century. It is said to have been introduced to Louis XIV during one of his visits to the château de Chambord. It was common during that time for liqueurs and cognac to be consumed with elegant meals.

Chambord is made from red and black raspberries, Madagascar vanilla, Moroccan citrus peel, honey and cognac brandy.

Popular drinks made from Chambord include the raspberry margarita, French manhattan, Kir Impérial, Chambord Daiquiri, Chambord royal spritzer and Raspberry Bramble.

Our favourite use of the popular French liqueur is this easy Raspberry Margarita recipe.

Raspberry Chambord Margarita Recipe Tips

This tart and tangy Raspberry Margarita is easy to make at home, ready to serve in under 10 minutes.

Our cocktail recipe serves one person. If you’re hosting a large gathering feel free to multiply the ingredients by the number of guests and muddle the drink in a festive punch bowl or jug rather than a cocktail shaker.

We’ve used tequila blanco in this recipe but you can substitute with your favourite golden aged tequila or even a smoky mezcal.

We’ve used cranberry cocktail in this recipe which is a slightly sweetened cranberry juice. If you want to sip a drink that is more tart purchase straight up cranberry juice. You can balance it out with simple syrup.

Add a splash of sparkling water or soda to the drink to give it a delightful fizz and make it less boozy.

An hour or two before you’re planning on serving drinks we suggest placing the Chambord and tequila bottle in the freezer so they are well chilled.

If you’d like to serve an authentic margarita feel free to rim the glass with salt or sugar. You can add dehydrated raspberry powder to the salt or sugar to give the rim a delightful berry flavoured taste and pink eye appeal.

We like to garnish the glass with a cocktail pick featuring fresh raspberries and a lime wheel but you can also muddle the berries and lime into the glass before serving for a more casual affair.

This Chambord Margarita is the perfect tequila cocktail for raspberry lovers.

Best Bartender Tools & Cocktail Equipment

Before hosting a swanky Raspberry Margarita cocktail soiree you’ll need to ensure you have the best bartender tools and cocktail equipment.

Cocktail Kit: cocktail kits are the perfect gift for newbie mixology fans as they include basic bartender tools like a jigger, shaker and spoon.
Cocktail Shaker: a bartender’s best friend. Purchase a premium cocktail shaker to muddle or shake up your favourite pink gin cocktails.
Cocktail Glassware: make sure your bar is stocked with a selection of unique glassware to show off your favourite cocktail creations.
Hawthorne Strainer: this unique strainer features tightly wound coils and perforated holes. It keeps ice and other large ingredients like lime wedges in your cocktail shaker rather than in the glass.
Bar Spoons: slender and long bar spoons are a must-have when stirring drinks.
Bottle Opener: easily open bottles of beer or cider with the flick of your wrist or purchase a corkscrew for fine wine.
Pouring Spout: once you’ve opened a new bottle of gin insert these affordable pourers to make cocktail assembly a breeze.
Cutting Board: purchase a petite cutting board for your bar to slice garnishes or citrus wedges like lime, orange, lemon or grapefruit.
Ice Bucket: chill bottles of gin quickly in an ice bucket or keep by the bar when muddling gin mixers into cool creations.
Ice Crusher: fans of the Mint Julep love an ice crusher.
Ice Cube Kit: we suggest purchasing a selection of ice cube trays. Silicone styles are our favourite as they’re easy to clean and are available in various shapes and sizes.
Jigger: use a jigger to accurately measure spirits, juices, syrups and shrubs.
Juicer: invest in an electronic juicer or buy an affordable hand-held to easily juice fresh citrus like lemons and limes.
Muddler: fans of the Mojito love a sturdy muddler to mix mint and lime. Muddler’s are handy for any cocktail featuring ingredients that need a pounding like fresh herbs or citrus wedges.
Citrus Peeler & Zester: adorn your craft cocktails with a thick citrus peel or finer ribbons of lime or lemon zest.
Rimmer: Bloody Mary and Caesar lovers should outfit their bar with a handy rimmer for salting and sugaring glassware.
