You'll love how the subtle aroma of orange blossom water, used to wet the rim of the glass, and the fragrant honey syrup blend with tequila and lime in this twist on the classic cocktail. For a unique garnish, choose a small, whole mandarin orange on a branch with a leaf attached and place it on the rim.
