If you love a refreshing tequila cocktail, try our fizzy lime margarita. Or go big and make it a margarita pitcher! Like other champagne cocktails, this one’s really easy to create. The recipe as written is for one drink, but it’s easy to scale up the quantities for a bigger batch for a crowd. Simply stir the margarita ingredients together in a shaker with ice, strain into salt-rimmed glasses, then top with some bubbles. Finish it off with a lime wedge or lime twirl! It’s a bright, refreshing, and elegant cocktail that’s as perfect for treating yourself on a Friday night as it is for serving on New Year’s Eve. And if you love champagne cocktails, also try our mimosas!
Coarse sea salt – for that classic salt rim. Tequila – we use white tequila to keep the cocktail light in color and flavor. Lime juice – fresh really is best for that full-on tangy taste. Agave – this Mexican sweetener derived from blue agave plants dissolves quickly so it’s perfect for using in cold beverages. It gives this cocktail its sweetness for the perfect sweet-sour combination. Sparkling wine – we typically use a mid-priced brut because it’s not overly sweet and won’t break the bank. If you like a sweeter cocktail, prosecco or cava are good options. Lime wedges or twirls – for garnish.
