Ingredients for Professional Margarita Recipe
- 18 ounces Tequila Blanco
- 18 ounces fresh squeezed lime juice (could be fresh bottled lime juice from the refrigerated section, but not the concentrated kind. FRESH)
- 9 ounces La Belle or Grand Marnier
- 8 ounces simple syrup + a little extra for glass rims
- 3 ounces orange juice
- 3 ounces Triple Sec
- coarse or flake sea salt for glass rims
- sliced lime and orange for garnish

How to make a Professional Margarita?
- Start by making the simple syrup, if you don’t have any on hand. Mix 7 ounces sugar with 7 ounces water. Microwave until the sugar has dissolved. You should have about 9-10 ounces so there will be a little extra for rimming the glasses.
- In a large pitcher, combine all the margarita ingredients. Stir well and chill.
- When ready to serve, pour the remaining simple syrup in a shallow dish. Pour sea salt (or flake salt) in a second shallow dish. Then dip the glass rims in simple syrup, followed by salt.
- Add ice to the glasses if desired, and fill a shaker with ice. Add the margarita mix to the shaker and shake for 10-15 seconds. Pour into glasses. Garnish the glasses with sliced limes or oranges and serve. Ole’!



Margarita Variations
- Strawberry: Blend with fresh strawberries.
- Mango: Mix in pureed mango for a tropical taste.
- Pineapple-Chili: Combine pineapple juice and a chili hint.
- Blueberry-Lime: Use blueberries with an extra squeeze of lime.
- Frozen Raspberry: Blend raspberries with extra ice for a slushy touch.
- Citrus Burst: Mix in orange and grapefruit juices.
