Flavor profile
The Margarita Negra offers a flavor profile that’s both refreshing and complex. This is another great example of how coffee does not only belong in dessert cocktails. Coffee pairs surprisingly nicely with lime juice, and the earthy flavors of the coffee blend right in with the mineral taste of agave nectar and spirits.

It’s the perfect harmony of flavors, and all the guests at your party will surely be pleased with this Halloween cocktail.
