This margarita is sweet in taste with a perfect blend of citrus and passion fruit. It brings out everything we love about summer and is the perfect drink for any outdoor event. It's easy to make and you can quickly make this margarita as many times as you want.
Ingredients
1/2 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
3 oz white tequila
3 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tbsp agave nectar
2 oz orange liquor
1 jalapeno
2 to 3 cups of ice
Salt ( to rim the glass )
Method
- Add the grapefruit juice, lime juice, agave nectar, white tequila, orange liquor, a slice of jalapenos and 1 ½ cups of ice in a cocktail shaker and whisk until smooth. A cocktail shaker comes in handy for this recipe but if you don't have a cocktail shaker, simply mix the ingredients in a pitcher or jug.
- Use a wedge of lime to wet the mouth/rim of the glass, then garnish it with a pinch of salt. The salty glass edge will balance the bitter taste of tequila and orange liquor found in the margarita and enhance the bitter notes of the drink. Its inclusion is a must in any margarita recipe.
- Add the remaining ice to the glass and pour the margarita into the glass.
Tip: Although traditional margaritas are made from tequila, you can replace this margarita with other alcohols such as gin or vodka.
These spicy grapefruit margaritas are best enjoyed right after you make them. So, serve it immediately. Serve the pile of margaritas to your friends and let the party begin. The grapefruit margarita recipe allows for a mini vacation without leaving the house. Sounds perfect right?
