HOUSE MARGARITAS
If you don't like a strong taste of tequila in your margarita, then this recipe is for you. It's a mild tasting margarita. This has the sweet and tart flavors you expect from a margarita, but the beer adds a bubbly flavor we loved. It's perfect to sip on while enjoying chips and salsa.

- 4. Then dip rim into a dish of salt.

Tips:
- Chill your ingredients: This will help your margaritas stay cold and refreshing. You can chill your glasses, tequila, lime juice, and orange liqueur in the refrigerator or freezer before making your margaritas.
- Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice will give your margaritas the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lime juice, you can use bottled lime juice, but it won't be as good.
- Don't skimp on the tequila: Tequila is the main ingredient in margaritas, so don't be afraid to use a good quality tequila. A good tequila will give your margaritas a smooth, rich flavor.
- Add some sweetness: Margaritas are traditionally made with a sweetener, such as simple syrup or agave nectar. You can adjust the amount of sweetener to your taste.
- Use salt: Salt is a classic garnish for margaritas. It helps to balance out the sweetness of the drink and adds a savory flavor.
Conclusion:
Margaritas are a delicious and refreshing cocktail that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, gatherings, or just relaxing at home. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a margarita that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a refreshing drink, give a margarita a try!
