Instructions
To Make Margarita:
- A few minutes before you make the drinks, place the margarita glasses in the freezer to chill. In a blender combine fresh orange juice, tequila, Cointreau, agave nectar, orange blossom water and ice. Blend till smooth.
- Use a fresh orange slice to rub a little juice around each rim of your chilled margarita glasses. Dip the moistened edge into a plate of sugar (I don't like to rim the glass with salt on this margarita, as it tends to distract from the aroma of the orange blossom water, but if you prefer it feel free). Fill each glass with the blended margarita. Serve cold.
