It’s so smooth compared to other tequilas I’ve tried, I definitely recommend. A Cadillac margarita is basically a higher-end margarita made with a high-quality tequila (typically a reposado) and Grand Marnier. I’ve recently become obsessed with Casamigos Tequila blanco. I’ve made this one completely added sugar-free and it’s deeeelicious! Super light and refreshing. Obviously, there are so many different ways to make a good margarita, but most have sugar in them, which I’m not always a fan of. But ever since Bridge and I had this cocktail at our wedding tasting in Cabo earlier in February, I’ve been loving them ever since! Tips for Making A Lime a Rita Use a light lager-type beer as you dont want any obvious beer flavor. Like rarely ever– it’s just a personal preference as I don’t always enjoy the way it makes me feel afterward/the next day, aka I’m way less productive, feel like a slug, crave unhealthy foods, it’s harder to exercise, you get the picture.

Actually, I didn’t mash ’em, I blended them, but more on that later. I’m not a big drinker if we’re being honest. I took summer’s best flavors juicy sweet strawberries and peppery refreshing basil and I mashed ’em up into summer’s best cocktail. Cut a notch in the middle of one of your lime wedges so it can fit around the rim of your glass. It’s the *perfect* evening cocktail with a hint of sass from the jalapeño and freshness from the grapefruit juice. Optional Ingredients All you need are the basic margarita ingredients mentioned above, but here are a few other things you might want to use for your drinks. Get a shallow bowl that is slightly larger than your glass and fill with a thick layer of salt. It comes in a bottle and according to the nutrition label, it has 0 calories and 0 carbs. Ingredients 4 tbsp salt 6 limes juiced (enough to make 12 ounces) 12 ounces tequila 1/2 tsp stevia powder 24 ounces sparkling water or club. Give the mix a taste and stir in a teaspoon or two of sweetener if desired. Cover and shake vigorously for about 10 seconds. The next best alternative, which is what makes this drink extra skinny, is Santa Cruz Organic Fresh Lime Juice. Add tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice and a few ice cubes to a cocktail shaker.

If there’s one thing Bridge and I have mastered this quarantine, it’s this spicy skinny margarita (or paloma– whichever you prefer). Lime Juice Freshly squeezed lime juice tastes best However, fresh limes do have some calories and some carbs.
