Have you ever had margarita from scratch? I am talking real lemon and lime juice not a mix out of a bottle? If you have never had one from scratch, you are in for a treat! We have found it is best to make “the mix” a few days ahead of time, if you can hold for a week it is even better.
“The Mix”:
½ cup of fresh squeezed lime juice
½ cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice
¼ cup of white sugar
Place "the mix" ingredients in a glass container, I use a clean jar. Shake until sugar is dissolved and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
When ready to drink Margaritas combine:
1 cup of Tequila
1 cup of Triple Sec
Mix
Serve over two cups of crushed ice
**If you like your Margaritas frozen pour all ingredients into a blender and blend until frozen.
Serve in a glass with either sugar or salt on the rim.
