Ingredients
• 1 oz Tequila Alternative (Link)
• 1/2 lime - juiced
• 1/2 oz agave
• 4 oz fresh orange juice
• Salt rim
Add ice, lime juice, agave, tequila alternative, and orange juice to a cocktail shaker. SHAKE IT UP! Then add tajin or salt to the rim of your glass. Add ice to that glass, strain, and pour your margarita over the ice. Garnish with a lime!
Recipe Notes:
Tequila Alternative: If you prefer, you can omit the tequila alternative and enjoy the mocktail as is. It will still have the vibrant citrus flavors of a traditional margarita. Just add another 1oz of orange juice or add another flavor like pineapple, mango, or strawberry!
Extra Kick: For those who like a bit of spice, add a few slices of jalapeño and a pinch of pepper to the shaker before mixing. It adds a delightful heat that complements the citrusy notes perfectly.
Add a Fizz (Optional): If you prefer a bit of sparkle in your drink, pour in the sparkling water after shaking the other ingredients.
Bitters: You can add a dash of orange bitters for extra depth. All The Bitter (Code: MOCKTAILGIRLIE)
