With National Tequila Day just around the corner, I felt it was key that we all have a really solid margarita recipe on hand. You know, because it's important.
First things first, throw out those crappy, premade, sugary-sweet margarita mixes. They suck.
Then, follow the directions below.
1 liter 100% agave tequila, chilled
2 (12 oz) cans frozen limeade, thawed in refrigerator
1/2 cup frozen concentrate orange juice, thawed in refrigerator
1/4 cup lime juice
Salt
2. Rub a lime wedge along the rim of your glass. Dip rim in a shallow dish of salt. We used Kosher because it's chunkier and looked more legit.
3. Serve margarita over ice.
National Tequila Day is Wednesday, July 24th.
Like you didn't know.
