Someone in the article asked the real question. How are we supposed to make Margaritas? The MinuteMaid frozen mixers are the only ones that don't use shelf stabilizers and taste decent.
1 shot orange liquor (I like patron citronage)
2 shot tequila
Juice 1/2 lime
1-2 shots simple syrup (1 to 1 sugar and water)
Shake vigorously with ice, strain and enjoy!
:3
That works for a single servings, not so much for party pitchers.
Kinda true, I mean depending on how many, I’ve made maybe… 4 at once. But yeah if you need like 10+…. I hope you have a big shaker lmao.
I guess there is always the store brand frozen concentrated unless that’s going away too…
What in there cannot be easily scaled up tho? Aside from the liquor its just lime juice and sugar!
Margaritas are really fucking easy to make. And fresh lime tastes better anyway.
2 oz (60 ml) Tequila Blanco
0.5 oz (15 ml) Cointreau or Grand Marnier or some other orange liqueur
1 oz (30 ml) lime juice 0.5 oz (15 ml) Agave syrup
Shake in a shaker or blend in a blender with ice.
I've never used or seen a bar or restaurant use anything other than the Jose Cuervo mix.
