Green Juice Margarita
Ingredients:
You’ll just need about 6 simple, fresh ingredients to make this green margarita. The combination might sound odd (cilantro in a cocktail?) but trust me when I say it’s SO flavorful and refreshing! Here’s what you’ll need:
Tequila: I prefer to use silver tequila, or tequila blanco, in margarita recipes. If you’re not a fan of tequila, feel free to use vodka or gin.
Water: you’ll need some cold water to help balance all of the flavors and allow the margarita to blend well.
Lime juice: gotta have fresh lime juice in a margarita!
Sweetener: feel free to add agave or simple syrup to sweeten the cocktail if you’d like. See below to learn how to make your own simple syrup at home.
Pineapple: we’re adding lovely tropical flavor with fresh pineapple chunks.
Herbs & heat: you’ll also blend in fresh mint and cilantro for an herby element that’s absolutely delicious. If you like a little spice, you can also add a couple slices of jalapeño!
Instructions:
Prep your glasses. As I mentioned above, feel free to add a salted rim to each of your glasses to start. Then add some ice cubes into the glasses for chilling the cocktail.
Blend the margarita. Add all of your ingredients to a blender and blend it up until the herbs are fully processed.
Pour it up. Pour the cocktail into your prepared glasses, add those fresh garnishes, and enjoy!
