Ingredients

Simple Syrup
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar white
Margarita
  • ½ cup frozen fruit or 3/4 oz fresh lime juice
  • ¼ cup simple syrup recipe above
  • 3 oz tequila
  • 1 oz orange liqueur
  • 1 cup ice
  • lime wedges
  • coarse sugar or salt

Instructions

Simple Syrup
    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat: Add the water and sugar to a small pot, heat over medium heat. Whisk while cooking. Once sugar is completely dissolved and mixture is clear, remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
Margaritas
  1. Blend: Add the frozen fruit of choice, or fresh lime juice, simple syrup, tequila, orange liqueur and ice to a blender (start with less ice than you think, too much ice will make the drink too thick). Blend for about 1 minute until completely mixed and no large chunks remain.
  2. Adjust: Taste and add more ice or sweetener as needed.
  3. Serve: Run a lime wedge around the rim of the glasses. Dip into sugar or salt. Pour margarita into glass, serve and enjoy!

Notes

  •  
  • Simple Syrup: can sub with agave syrup if desired as a sweetener. 
  • This simple syrup recipe will make enough for 6-8 margaritas, leftovers can be stored in a sealed container at room temperature for 3-5 days. 
  • Tequila: use a 100% Agave Tequila. Either a blanco or a reposada will work well in this recipe.
  • Orange Liqueur: Triple Sec is a common option, you could also use Cointreau.
  • Alcohol amounts: This recipe includes slightly more than one shot per drink. Amounts of alcohol can be adjusted according to preference. 
  • Large Batches: Keep the ratios the same, and prepare a larger batch of margaritas at one time.
