Notes
- Fresh lime juice has the best flavor, but bottled lime juice can work in a pinch.
- Frozen pineapple chunks instead of ice keep the pineapple margarita cocktail cold without watering it down.
- Make a large batch and refrigerate it ahead of time for easier serving at parties.
- Use quality tequila, don't grab the cheapest bottle on the shelf.
- Adjust the agave to your taste. Want a sweeter margarita, add more agave. For a tarter margarita, skip the agave syrup.
- No cocktail shaker? No problem. In a separate glass, mix the liquid ingredients and pour into a prepared serving glass.
