Classic Margaritas

By á-174535

Often margaritas are made with simple syrup or agave nectar, but this recipe uses powdered sugar. Try it in salt-rimmed glasses!

Ingredients

• 3 cups Triple Sec or other orange liqueur
• 2 cups tequila
• 1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 cup superfine sugar or powdered sugar
• Kosher salt
• 9 lime wedges
• Ice cubes

Preparation

Step 1

In a pitcher combine Triple Sec, tequila, lime juice, and sugar. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Chill mixture until ready to serve.

Place salt on a small plate. Rub rims of eight glasses with one of the lime wedges. Dip rims of glasses in salt to coat.

Place ice cubes in salt-rimmed glasses. Pour tequila mixture over ice cubes. Garnish with remaining lime wedges.
