PINK GRAPEFRUIT MARGARITAS FROM INA GARTEN RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Pink Grapefruit Margaritas from Ina Garten Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lime, cut in wedges, optional
Kosher salt, optional
1 cup ruby red grapefruit juice
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (4 limes)
1 cup orange liqueur, such a Triple Sec
1 cup white tequila
2 tablespoons sugar, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • If you like a salt rim on the glasses, rub the lime around the edge of the glass and then dip the rim of each glass lightly in a plate of kosher salt. Set aside to dry. Combine the grapefruit juice, lime juice, orange liqueur, and ice in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour into a large pitcher and stir in the tequila. If youre not serving the margaritas in salted glasses, stir 1/4 teaspoon of salt into the pitcher of margaritas. Believe me, it will make a difference! Serve ice cold. NOTE: I saved half of the leftover margaritas (there were only two of us) in the freezer. I refreshed them in a blender with a little more ice, and they were perfect!

Tips:

  • Choose the right grapefruit: Use fresh, ripe grapefruit with a deep pink color and a heavy feel for the juiciest and most flavorful margaritas.
  • Make your own sour mix: Fresh sour mix is easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought. Simply combine 1 part lime juice, 1 part lemon juice, and 1 part simple syrup in a jar and shake until well combined.
  • Use good quality tequila: A good quality tequila will make a big difference in the flavor of your margaritas. Look for a 100% agave tequila that is at least 80 proof.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients before making your margaritas will help them stay cold and refreshing. You can chill your tequila, grapefruit juice, sour mix, and glasses in the refrigerator or freezer.
  • Don't over-shake your margaritas: Over-shaking your margaritas will make them watery and dilute the flavor. Shake your margaritas just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Serve your margaritas with a fun garnish: A fun garnish will add a festive touch to your margaritas. You can use lime wedges, grapefruit slices, or even a sprinkle of salt.

Conclusion:

Pink grapefruit margaritas are a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the best pink grapefruit margaritas at home. So next time you're looking for a refreshing cocktail, give the pink grapefruit margarita a try.
