Margarita
I love a margarita, it is truly one of the easiest cocktails to make and it's so refreshing to drink in summer.
This recipe easily doubles if needed and the reason I say it serves 1-2 is it will depend on the size of your glasses. For me it serves 1.
Feel free to use lemon instead of lime, they both taste great, but I prefer lime.
I like it with salt on the rim, you may prefer it with sugar for a sweeter option, or you don't need to add anything.
Although not classical, for those that like a lighter cocktail, you can add lemonade, if you find it too strong, I do it sometimes and it tastes great.
A simple and refreshing cocktail to make for yourself, your family or friends.
