Today is Cinco de Mayo. The 5th of May. It’s a holiday celebrated by the Hispanic community and those of us who like to partake in Mexican food and margaritas. Although margaritas don’t fit into my current eating plan, I will still make some margaritas for my family who is coming by today. My friends Rich and Karla from Fort Collins, Colorado, showed me this margarita recipe, which I consider to be the greatest margarita in the world!
Learn how to make the world’s greatest margarita.
Ingredients: 2 ounces tequila (I prefer Patron Silver)
2 ounces Cointreau
1 ounce margarita mix
1 ounce lime juice
1 small pour Grand Marnier
Mix the tequila, Cointreau, margarita mix, and lime juice in a cocktail mixer over several ice cubes. Pour out into a salt rimmed glass and pour in the Grand Marnier until you see the color start to darken in the margarita. Enjoy!
Wow! Looks yummy. Perfect color and lime and salted rim is a great little touch of authenticity.
Thanks. I love a good Margarita. Another good way to have a margarita is to have a giant margarita with a corona beer bottle in it.
