Notes

Tips and Tricks
1. Use fresh ingredients: To make a delicious skinny Margarita, opt for fresh lime juice instead of store-bought sour mix. Fresh lime juice adds a vibrant flavor and it's low in calories.
2. Choose high-quality Tequila: A good-quality Tequila enhances the taste of your Margarita. Blanco or silver Tequila works best for this cocktail, as it has a smoother and crisper flavor.
5. Don't forget the salt rim: For the perfect finishing touch, rim your glass with salt, preferably sea salt or kosher salt. The salty rim balances out the sweetness of the drink and adds an extra layer of flavor.
