I’ve made my share of baked goodies with salted caramel as the star ingredient, including Salted Caramel & Pretzel Brownies or Bacon & Salted Caramel Brownies. But I’ve never had a salted caramel margarita. And since it’s National Margarita Day I think it’s about time!
My friends over at The Underground in Chicago’s River North neighborhood have kindly shared the recipe for one of their special margaritas: the Salted Caramel Margarita. The Underground was named “Hottest Club” by Entertainment Weekly and “Best in the U.S.” by Nightclub and Bar Magazine, in part because it attracts red-hot performers like Katy Perry, John Mayer, and Kanye West.
