Time 15m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 navel oranges, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
2 lemons, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
2 limes, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 cup superfine sugar
1/4 cup Cointreau
1/4 cup Triple Sec
1 1/2 cups good quality tequila (recommended: 100 percent agave)
10 cups ice
Fine salt, for the rims of the glasses
10 lime wedges

Steps:

  • Put the oranges, lemons, and limes through a juicer. Pour the juice into a large pitcher. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve. Then stir in the Cointreau, Triple Sec, and tequila.
  • To serve: Pour salt onto a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the top of each glass and dip the glass in the salt. Fill each glass halfway with ice and pour in the juice mixture. Garnish with a lime wedge and serve.
  • Chef's note: Farm freshness is the key here. Look for the citrus that is mostly in season and adjust the recipe. Tangerines, Meyer lemons, and key limes all have amazing flavor if you can find them.

I've tried many margarita recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. The citrus wheels make all the difference.

I had some trouble finding blood oranges for this recipe. I ended up using regular oranges, and the margaritas were still delicious.

I found that the margaritas were a bit too strong for my taste. I would probably use less tequila next time.

These margaritas are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably cut back on the sugar next time.

My friends and I loved this recipe! We had it for Taco Tuesday and it was a great way to enjoy our tacos. My favorite part is the sugared rim.

These margaritas are perfect for a hot summer day. They're light and refreshing, and they go down a little too easily!.

I love that this recipe uses fresh citrus fruits. It makes the margaritas taste so much better than when you use pre-made sour mix.
