Blood orange margaritas with an orange slice on the rim.

I love winter time as it moves into spring because that’s when you get spring fruits and vegetables such as Blood Oranges. I love blood oranges and their unique flavor. They are richer and have a smoother taste than your typical navel orange. Plus, they have this beautiful deep red coloring that really catches your eye.

Expert Tips

Choosing your Blood Oranges – Any blood orange you use will have that classic taste. But note that if the Blood orange is more orange in color the juice will be lighter and you will also get more juice out of the blood orange. If the outside of the orange is more of a darker red color the juice will be darker as well. But there will likely be less juice in these oranges.

Strain Your Blood Orange Juice – If you are using fresh blood oranges to get your juice, be sure to strain it before adding it into your cocktail shaker to remove any pulp or seeds that might come out.

Sweetener – If you don’t have simple syrup on hand you can also use an ounce of agave nectar as a substitute in this recipe.

FAQs

How should I garish my cocktail rim for these Blood Orange Margaritas?

For these margaritas I like to dip the rim in kosher salt and then add a some blood orange slices to the edge. However, you can also garnish with an orange wedge, lime wedge or any other citrus fruit you prefer!

What is the best tequila to use for this blood orange margarita?

I prefer using silver tequila but it truly doesn’t matter. You can also use reposado tequila, Blanco tequila, or any other tequila you prefer.

Storage Information

You can store any leftovers of your Blood Orange Margarita in your fridge for 2-3 days.

Step #3: Then, spoon half the honey mustard sauce over the top of the salmon pieces until they are all coated well.

FAQs

Can I use Dijon mustard instead of regular mustard for this salmon recipe?

Of course! Dijon mustard is a great substitute for your honey-mustard glaze if you don’t have regular mustard. I’ve made this recipe with both but prefer the bold taste of regular mustard compared to Dijon.

I would recommend serving this recipe alongside some rice, an arugula salad, or even fresh vegetables.

This Crack cake recipe is a decadent, irresistibly moist dessert with a rich, buttery flavor that truly melts in your mouth. The cake’s sweetness is balanced by a hint of cinnamon, and a subtle tang of the white wine glaze. The glaze seeps into the cake, making it soft, slightly sticky, and infused with a luscious, almost caramel-like sweetness. Everyone will love this one of a kind cake!

Bundt cakes are my favorite because of their classic and elegant shape, you don’t need any decoration. For more delicious Bundt cake recipes, check out my Carrot Bundt Cake and Mayan Chocolate Glazed Bundt Cake.

How to Make Crack Cake

Step #1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and generously grease your Bundt cake pan.

Step #4: While the cake is baking, prepare your glaze. In a medium or small saucepan melt the butter then add in the sugar and mix until the sugar crystals dissolve, about 5-10 minutes. Then, add in the white wine and stir until everything has combined for another 1-2 minutes.

Step #5: Once the cake has baked, use a toothpick or skewer and poke holes all around the bottom of the cake, while it is still in the Bundt pan.

Step #6: Next, pour the glaze over the bottom of the cake while it is still in the pan. Be sure to not let it overflow. If it gets too full you can pour half, wait for it to soak in and then add in the other half.

Step #7: Once the glaze has soaked in, allow the cake to cool for at least 15-20 minutes.

Step #8: Because the glaze has been added the cake will be stickier. Using a rubber spatula loosen the sides of the cake in the pan, then take a serving plate and turn the cake out onto the plate.

Step #9: Finally, serve and enjoy!

FAQs

What type of white wine should I use in my Crack cake?

I prefer using a sweeter wine like a Riesling or Moscato. However, you can also use Pinot grigio, chardonnay, or any other white wine you prefer.

How do I prevent my Crack cake from sticking to the pan?

After the glaze has been added to the cake it gets very sticky. In order to keep your cake from sticking to the inside of the pan make sure you generously add nonstick cooking spray or your preferred way to grease a cake pan. Then, after the glaze has been poured in and cooled, use a rubber spatula to help release the sides of the cake from the pan.
