Cinco de Mayo: The Perfect Margarita

Happy Cinco de Mayo! There's nothing I like more than a little reason to party and no party is better than a fiesta! If you're looking for fiesta ideas, check out the fiesta wedding shower I hosted just a few weeks ago.

Today, I thought I'd bring you my favorite part of fiesta's... the drinks! Well one drink to be exact. I love a good Margarita. I'm also VERY picky about my margaritas. No crappy pre-mixed stuff for me. When my husband started making this Margarita for me, I'll admit I've become a bit of a Margarita snob. Thanks honey! But seriously, try this and you will too.


Ingredients: 

Limes
Ice
100% Tres Agaves Organic Agave Nector
Tequila, I prefer Cazadores Reposado, because it is 100% pure agave tequila

(Fun fact: Agave is the plant that tequila comes from. Any tequila that does not say 100% Agave is actually a blend of Tequila and some other form of alcohol.)


Step 1: Squeeze the juice from your limes. It taste much better with fresh squeeze lime juice.
Step 2: Measure out 1 part lime juice, 1 part Agave Nector, and 2 parts Tequila into your Mixer.
Step 3: Add Ice to the mixer and shake!
Step 4: Pour into desired glass.
Step 5: ENJOY! 

It's that simple people. Not only is it easy to make, but it's all real ingredients. Try this out, you will love it and never look back. 


On a side note, if you're wondering about that big ball of ice in our Margarita glass, know that it's amazing. You can purchase the ice mold on Amazon. We love them because the ice doesn't hit your face as your drinking and it doesn't water down your drink.
