Can’t find an places near you with a good margarita deal, you can make some yourself. Here are some delicious margarita recipes –
Classic Margarita Recipe
1 1/2 ounces gold tequila
1 1/2 ounces Grand Marnier
1 1/2 ounces fresh lime juice
1 1/2 ounces simple syrup
Pour tequila, Grand Marnier, lime juice and simple syrup in a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Shake vigorously to mix and pour over ice. Drink immediately.
Strawberry Margarita
- 1/2 cup puréed strawberries (reserve some for garnish, if desired)
- 1 cup of Patron tequila (but any kind will do)
- splash triple sec (or any orange flavored liqueur)
- Juice of one lime
- Margarita or Kosher salt for rimming the glasses
Pour tequila, puréed strawberry, lime juice and triple sec in a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Shake vigorously to mix and pour over ice. Drink immediately.
Don’t feel like making margarita with all the ingredients than buy a premade margarita. I recommend Jose Cuervo Golden Margarita if you like a classic version. If you like flavored, then Jose Cuervo Strawberry Lime and Grapefruit Tangerine are great ones to grab at your local grocery store. Make some great guacamole with this recipe.
Remember, always drink responsibly and never drink and drive. Cheers!
