The HTD Margarita Set #2 combines Casamigos Blanco Tequila, made from 100% Blue Weber agave piñas roasted in traditional brick ovens, with Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao, crafted using a blend of Curaçao orange peels and Cognac. What's fascinating about this pairing is how it marries the clean, crisp agave notes of a premium tequila with the complex, bitter-orange flavors of a liqueur that's steeped in centuries-old French distilling traditions.

Casamigos, the tequila brand co-founded by George Clooney, was originally created as a private label for the actor and his friends to enjoy. It became so popular among their circle that they decided to release it commercially in 2013.

Dry Curaçao, unlike its sweeter blue cousin, is made with the dried peels of the laraha citrus fruit, which is indigenous to the island of Curaçao. This bitter orange evolved from Valencia oranges brought by Spanish explorers, adapting to the arid climate of the island.

The combination of Casamigos and Dry Curaçao in a margarita creates a unique flavor profile that some bartenders refer to as a "Hollywood Margarita," blending celebrity allure with sophisticated citrus notes for a drink that's both glamorous and complex.
