Use fresh Key lime juice to give this margarita a tropical flair. Instead of simple syrup to balance the tart lime flavor, use agave nectar, a sweetener produced in Mexico that's sweeter than sugar.
Ingredients:
lime wedge
coarse salt
2 ounces (1/4 cup) fresh key lime juice
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) agave nectar or simple syrup
1 1/2 ounces (3 tablespoons) tequila
1/2 ounce (1 tablespoon) premium orange liqueur
Directions:
1. Rub rim of a rocks or margarita glass with lime wedge, then dip in coarse salt.
2. Combine Key lime juice and remaining ingredients in an ice-filled shaker. Shake vigorously, and pour into prepared glass.
