The Margarita is a classic for a reason! Just three ingredients—tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice.
What does it mean for a margarita to be on the rocks?
Everyone knows that in a frozen margarita, the ice is blended into small beads that spread out throughout the drink, while in an on-the-rocks margarita, the drink is poured over ice cubes. Whether you prefer frozen or on the rocks margaritas may very well have to do with your ice preferences.May 2, 2019
What is better in a margarita Cointreau or triple sec?
Then there's the question of whether to use triple sec or Cointreau. Triple sec, a liqueur made from the skins of oranges, ranges in alcohol content from 15% to 30%, depending on the brand. Cointreau, a proprietary orange liqueur made from sweet and bitter orange skins, is stronger, at 40%.
Whats the secret to a good margarita?
The secret to a better marg is in the juice. That means freshly squeezed lime juice (not the bottled stuff), and—here's the real secret—a splash of fresh OJ. That's right. Fresh-squeezed juice from an *actual* orange, NOT orange-flavored liqueur, is the secret to a cleaner tasting, more refreshing margarita.May 4, 2020
How do you make store bought margarita mix better?
Swap out some or all of the lime for lemon, grapefruit, blood orange or tangerine juice to change the cocktail's flavor and color. If you pick a citrus that's even more tart than limes, add a dash of simple syrup or agave nectar to balance the drink out.Jul 9, 2019

What is the best type of tequila for a margarita?
Blanco tequila
Is Espolon a good tequila?
This tequila is affordable and decent-tasting but can get lost in cocktails. Although affordable, Espolon Blanco is really just an okay tequila. Its mild flavor makes it a fine sipper, though its lack of punch could render it lost in cocktails.
Can you use any tequila for margaritas?
There are two types of tequila to use in your margarita: reposado or blanco. We prefer reposado because of the nuanced flavor it adds. Tequila blanco is also ideal for margaritas. It has a straightforward agave-centric flavor and spicy finish.
