The Margarita recipe is one of the most famous tequila cocktails recipes. Margarita drinks are often served as blended or frozen. I prefer mine on the rocks with salt - but if your a fan of the adult slushie - blend away!
Margarita Ingredients
3oz of tequila ( I like hornitos)
2oz of orange flavored liqueur ( conintreau or grand mariner is best - triple sec will do!)
1 fresh lime juiceed
1/2 orange juiced
1 oz simple syrup
Coarse kosher salt
Lime wedge
Ice cubes
Add all ingredients except lime wedge and salt in a shaker...
shake well and pour into a salt rimmed glass and serve garnished with a lime wedge!
The above recipe is considered to be the most traditional and classical of all recipes of margaritas. But there are many alternative recipes which for example includes mango, melon or my faveorite twist is the blackberry margarita!
Start by making a blackberry puree... ( enough for 2 margaritas)
1 cup frozen blackberries
juice of 1/2 lime
1 tbsp sugar
1/4 cup blackberry juice or other berry juice
puree and stain
Add 1/2 of the puree to the recipe above, but instead of using grand mariner, use chambord, or other blackberry liqueur
garnish with a few fresh blackberries and a lime wedge
Rim the glass with sugar instead of salt
