Margarita Mondays



I have added a twist to the basic margarita by adding orange juice, it is really tasty! I am sure I am not the first to do this but I thought I would share my “recipe” with you. To be honest I just put a little of this and that in the mix, but I would estimate it to be around these proportions. Play around with the amount of orange juice as it can really change the flavor.

2 oz tequila
4 oz premade margarita mix (we like the Kirkland brand from Costco, evidently there is a mix with tequila in it if your state allows liquor to be sold at supermarkets, Oregon does not unfortunately)
3 oz orange juice
a few ice cubes

Throw all the ingredients in a magic bullet or blender, then blend until you like the consistency. Then enjoy!

My other current favorite is a creamsicle or blended creamsicle!
2 oz whipped flavored vodka
6-8 oz orange juice
Simply stir together or add a few ice cubes and blend for a frozen treat!

Enjoy these yummy drinks out in the sun!
