Holy moly these are tasty. I love citrus in almost any food or drink. The grapefruit and lime pairs perfectly with tequila for a refreshing summer cocktail. Careful-this marg is strong and can sneak up on you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use lime juice from a bottle?

Yes, fresh squeezed is best but in a time crunch I use Santa Cruz or Lakewood Organic lime juice.

Can I make a pitcher of this?

Absolutely. Use the ratios below and make into a large batch. Have plenty of ice on hand and dilute as needed.

Notes

Katie’s Tips:
*I use this ratio and then adjust accordingly for how many I need.  Often, I will make a big pitcher, and the let is chill in the fridge before a party.
*I’ve gotten lazy in my later years and use Lakewood Organic fresh lime.
