Notes
- How to store: Transfer to an airtight storage container, and place in the fridge. It will last about two weeks.
- How to freeze: Freeze the margarita mix in cube form. (Ice cube trays would be excellent.) Defrost in the fridge when you want to make a margarita.
- *Please note that this margarita recipe is pretty strong. If you're concerned about that, you should add some ice to a shaker, and let it combine with the ingredients and dissolve a little to help balance out the drink for you.
