The Sunset Blvd Margarita
Reposado tequila, blood orange, lime, agave & smoked salt rim
Where sushi culture meets California dreaming — in a glass
The Story
Sunset Boulevard stretches from downtown LA to the Pacific — a 22-mile journey through Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and the Sunset Strip. The margarita has been LA's cocktail since the mid-century era, and this blood orange version captures the boulevard's legendary sunsets: deep orange fading to crimson, reflected in a glass rimmed with smoked salt.
