Inspired by the increase in takeaway orders, Jose Cuervo created a special tequila-infused pizza for National Margarita Day called that's fittingly called the 'Margarita Margherita.' The alcohol-infused pizza fuses the classic ingredients of a Margherita pizza with a margarita cocktail, so that fans can enjoy a twist on a beloved kind of comfort food.
To prepare the Margarita Margherita pizza, the team uses dough that was fermented in Jose Cuervo tequila for more than 24 hours, plus tomato sauce marinated in triple sec, salt, garlic and tequila. To top off the unique creation, there's a balance of flavors from grated Parmesan, buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil leaves, sea salt and lime wedges. Each order comes with a complimentary pizza-inspired cocktail with unusual savory ingredients.
