Skinny Margaritas

I absolutely love a good margarita, however I despise the majority of pre-made margarita mixes you can find in the store. They are filed with sugar and just don’t taste refreshing. I have tried countless different brands and kinds and nothing seems to cut it, except this skinny margarita.

In efforts to keep my figure and be able to have a margarita or two on occasion I set out to make the perfect skinny margarita. After a bit of perfecting I ended up with the below, and boy oh boy, is this recipe heavenly. It is super refreshing and NOT sweet.

Ingredients

• 1 Lemon Squeezed
• 1 Lime Squeezed
• 2 Shots Tequila
• 1/2 Shot Triple Sec/ Cointreau
• 1/2-3/4 Can Fresca
• 1 dash Agave Syrup Optional

Instructions

1. Squeeze lemon and lime juice in a glass or bowl. Set aside. 

2. Fill a glass with ice.

3. Pour the shots of tequila and triple sec/cointreau in the glass with ice. 

4. Add the lemon and lime juice into the alcohol glass. 

5. Top off with Fresca. (If you want it a little sweeter add a dash of agave syrup. I have made it both ways and they both are delicious. I would start with not adding it and then add it in if the margarita is too tart for you.) 

6. Mix. 

7. Enjoy!
