Behold! The TIM TAM MARGARITA is here and we’re obsessed!

The ultimate Australia Day cocktail! - by Amy Sinclair

When it comes to great Australian fare, it’s hard to go past the Tim Tam.

They’re as Aussie as Crocodile Dundee and taste like heaven - whether you eat them on their own or as part of a dessert, like our world famous Tim Tam Cheesecake.

Behold! The TIM TAM MARGARITA is here and we’re obsessed!

But one Aussie restaurant chain has taken the Aussie bikkie to the next level, creating the Tim Tam Margarita.

Featuring caramel flavours and even a Tim Tam straw - woaaaah! - it's the creation of Mexican restaurant chain El Camino Cantina, who are selling the decadent cocktail throughout January to celebrate Australia.

Announcing the cocktail on Instagram, they wrote: ‘3 WORDS: Tim...Tam...Margaritas! 😳😍🤤🙌🏼 Our Margarita of the Month is a Caramel Tim Tam flavoured Margarita! Available for January only! 🇦🇺🍫🍸 #elcaminocantina #elcamino.’

And while some were weary on social media - ‘I uncomfortable but I want it’ - many were desperate to give it a go.

‘I need this in my life,’ wrote one. Said another: ‘Yes, yes, yes!’

El Camino Cantina is situated in The Rocks and at Manly in Sydney, plus Bowen Hills in Queensland. And if you can’t get to one of their restaurants, can we suggest this cocktail - not Tim Tam, but still very Aussie!
