Ingredients
For One, Classic Skinny Margarita:
- kosher salt & lime wedge, to rim the glass
- 1 ½ ounces tequila about 3 tablespoons, silver
- 3 tablespoons lime juice about 1 large or 1 1/2 small limes, freshly squeezed
- 1 ½ tablespoons orange juice about 1/2 medium orange, freshly squeezed
- 1 teaspoon agave nectar add 2 if you prefer a sweeter margarita, light
- ice
For a Pitcher of Skinny Margaritas (5 Drinks):
- 8 ounces tequila 1 cup, silver
- 8 ounces lime juice 1 cup, from about 5 medium/large limes, freshly squeezed
- 4 ounces orange juice 1/2 cup, from about 4 medium oranges, freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar or simple syrup, more if you prefer a sweeter margarita, light
Instructions
- Rim the glass: Pour a thin layer of salt onto a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the top edge of your glass to moisten it, then dip the glass into the salt so that it sticks, tapping all the way around. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
- For one (or two) drinks: fill a small cocktail shaker with additional ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, and agave. Tightly close and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds (it's longer than you think).
- Strain into the rimmed glass over the ice. Enjoy immediately.
- For a pitcher: In the bottom of a pitcher, stir together the tequila, lime juice, orange juice, and agave (do not add ice to the pitcher). Serve immediately (prepare the glasses as in Step 1) or place a sheet of plastic wrap over the top of the pitcher and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
