This is a Classic Margarita and it only requires 4 ingredients to create a fun and relaxing time! Few drinks are this simple and this delicious just make sure you use lime juice and none of that sugary margarita mix.
margarita Cocktail tips:
My two favorite types of orange liquor are Triple Sec and Cointreau. Using orange juice will not do the job but will work.
Can you make ahead?
Fridge: Make a pitcher to keep from making individual cocktails. I add the ice, right before serving.
