Expert Tips
Tequila Purchase: Look for the small, individual bottles of tequila often sold at liquor stores or on airplanes. This eliminates the need for a larger, potentially unused, bottle.
No Triple Sec: Many margarita recipes call for triple sec, a liqueur with a high sugar content. To keep sugar levels down, this recipe skips it. While you can add a splash of orange juice for flavor, it's not necessary.
Sweetness from Agave: The agave nectar gives this margarita a sweet touch. If you prefer an orange flavor, feel free to add some orange juice to taste.
Adaptable Recipe: This is a base recipe that can be adjusted to your preferences. If it's too sweet for your liking, add more lime. If too tart, increase the agave.
