Then mix it all together in a shaker with a little ice. For a less “natural” margarita, you can also use simple sugar – 2 cups of water boiled with 2 cups of sugar, then cooled. I found mine (Izzy’s Organic Blue Agave) at our local Asian market, but have also seen it at Trader Joe’s. When looking for the blue agave sweetener, you may have difficulty finding it in your regular grocery store. I tried off-brand, cheaper juices and it dramatically effected the quality of the drink (but I am a margarita snob). Use POM and Simply Orange juices for this margarita, and while kind of pricey, they really make a big difference. I used 1 ounce of water in this recipe because I like a “lighter” drink, but if you want more of a punch, substitute tequila for the water. I like to keep my tequila in the freezer so that it doesn’t warm-up my drink. The greatest part is that it tastes better AND is significantly cheaper than Jose and Suaza. It invites you to find these recipes and more on its website. I recently found Drego Azul, a Mexican Tequila that is 3/4 Agave (Jose Cuervo is only 1/2, Patron is 100%).

Then, I discovered a blended lime recipe that was sweeter and less intense on the lime flavor, definitely loved by some of my less lime-crazy friends. My first love was a full flavored lime recipe kept in the freezer after making and served directly out of the freezer. Over the years, I have gone through several favorite margarita recipes. Its my go-to drink, and I usually determine my favorite restaurant based on the quality of their margaritas. As some of you may know, I am a margarita girl. ![]()
