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!
