818 Pomegranate Date Margarita cocktail in a coupe glass with orange garnish

818 Tequila

Pomegranate Date Margarita

Rich flavors with just enough spice and a caramel-like finish in this complex cocktail.

The 818 Pomegranate Date Margarita is a bold, fruit-forward twist on the classic margarita. 818 Reposado brings warm agave depth, while pomegranate juice adds a tart ruby richness and date syrup rounds everything out with a honeyed, caramel-like sweetness.

A splash of Ancho Reyes adds just enough smoky spice to keep things interesting. Shake it hard, strain into a coupe, and finish with a dehydrated orange wheel for a cocktail that looks as good as it tastes.
