World’s first Margarita Margherita pizza coming to Belfast

Jose Cuervo has created a Margarita Margherita pizza, a unique crossover meal combining the ingredients of a Margherita pizza with those of a Margarita cocktail, to mark National Margarita Day on February 22.
The Mexican drinks brand has joined forces with vendors and restaurants to freshly make and deliver the Margarita Margherita pizza to homes across Belfast on February 22, with pre-orders now available via josecuervoirl.myshopify.com.
The Margarita Margherita pizza recipe includes pizza dough fermented in Jose Cuervo tequila for over 24-hours; tomato sauce marinated in triple sec, salt, garlic and Jose Cuervo tequila; a topping of Buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil leaves and grated parmesan; and a garnish of sea salt and fresh lime.
Every purchase of the £8 pizza will come with a complimentary special edition pizza-inspired Margarita cocktail combining the traditional sweet and savoury flavours of a traditional Margarita with toppings found in a traditional Margherita pizza. It contains fresh lemon juice, basil, fresh tomatoes and tequila finished off with a garnish of cherry tomatoes and a mozzarella ball on a skewer with basil leaves.
