If you know anything about me, you know that I love margaritas (and tequila!) - they are my jam. Plain and simple. I don't, however, love when they are made with a bunch of sugar or the pre-made juices, but rather love making them myself nice and fresh! Give this one a try next time you need a cold one on the rocks:
Serving size: 2 margaritas
INGREDIENTS:
Ice
2 ounces silver tequila
1/2 ounce simple syrup (optional)
1-2 fresh limes
1-2 fresh lemons
club soda
chili-lime sea salt (got ours from Trader Joe's)
fresh lime wheel, for added garnish
DIRECTIONS:
If you prefer, dip the edges of your glass in water and then roll around in the sea salt, creating a salted rim. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the tequila, simple syrup and fresh lime + lemon juice. Cover and shake well for 20-30 seconds. Add in the club soda and stir to mix well. Pour into salt-rimmed glass. Garnish with an additional lime wheel. Enjoy!
