Anna’s Favorite Margaritas
In: kitchen
9 Apr 2009This recipe makes four (large) or more (smaller) margaritas. It is absolutely important to use fresh juice if you can in any way get ahold of it (though obviously it can be squeezed beforehand). Also, I usually chill the Tequila and Cointreau as well, so I don’t have to do much with it once it’s mixed.
You need:
- Juice of six limes (not key limes)
- Juice of one orange
- 1c. Tequila (8oz)
- 1/2c. Cointreau (4oz)
- 1/4c simple syrup – optional
The juice should total between 3/4 and 1c of fresh juice. Depending on how sweet the limes/orange is, you may need the simple syrup. Otherwise, mix all ingredients, and serve on the rocks in a salted-rim glass.

Hi! I'm Anna.
I ramble, have too many hobbies, and post anything that strikes my fancy. On any given day, I might be knitting, sewing, working on my house, presenting a recipe or discussing something deeper. Though maybe food can be pretty deep too.
Stay awhile and look around, who knows what you'll find?

I know it’s not traditional, but could I have mine w/o the salt?

@Steve:
Absolutely. Several of my family members prefer them that way. (I, however, must have salt!)
