Like and liquor, you can go super expensive or quite affordable. If you want a frozen margarita, just add about 5 cups of ice to the blender and blend with the other ingredients. Shake for 20 seconds and then pour in the glass with some crushed ice. In a cocktail shaker with ice, add the tequila, lemon juice, triple sec and agave syrup. Dip in sugar or salt or a combination of both. Rub the rim of a glass with a lemon slice. I like agave syrup in this lemon margarita, but honey or sugar can be used as substitutes.I always have triple sec in my cabinet, but Cointreau works great as well.Meyer lemons are less acidic and sweeter in taste. While I use regular lemons, Meyer lemons are a good substitute.can use sugar or create a simple syrup.Īs with any recipe, you can mix up the ingredients if you want. Agave syrup - a traditional ingredient in margaritas that offsets the sourness.Triple sec - an orange liquor that complements the lemons.Lemons - you want to freshly squeeze the lemon juice.Tequila - go with silver if possible and use your favorite brand.So if you are looking for a drink that is great on Cinco de Mayo or a party with friends, this margarita should be at the top of the list. Offset by a slight sweetness of the agave syrup, this cocktail is way better than those margarita mixes you can buy at the store. That sour and acidic flavor just screams hot days.Īnd that same flavor works great in this lemon margarita.
When it comes to cocktails during the summer, the possibilities are endless - from a blackberry margarita to a peach martini to a limoncello spritz.Īnd while you can have lemons year round and their season is technically winter, I always associate lemons with the summer. With tequila, fresh lemon juice, triple sec and agave syrup, this lemon margarita is a more citrus forward and less sweet take on the classic margarita.
