SUE'S ITALIAN MARGARITAS
This refreshing margarita has citrus undertones and is the perfect mix of sweet and sour. It's actually a little on the sweet side. Amaretto is a special touch and gives this typically Mexican drink a little Italian flair. If you use the ingredients Susan recommends, you'll have the perfect cocktail. Cheers!

Steps:
- 1. HINT:#1 Do NOT use any other lime juice or soda other than listed. You will not get the awesome taste of my recipe. I tried it and it doesn't taste good. HINT:#2 The recipe above is enough for 2-3 drinks depending on the size of glass used. I usually double the recipe that way you will have more for refills.
- 2. Mix together the first 5 ingredients in a blender. (If you double the ingredients then pour out half into a pitcher or you will have a mess.)
- 3. Add a couple large handfuls or a little more of ice cubes and blend/crush.
- 4. You will have small chunks of ice which is good. (If you doubled the recipe then repeat the process.)
- 5. Place margarita salt onto a small plate and wet the rims of your glass with the margarita liquid or water.
- 6. Dip into the salt.
- 7. Pour your drink. Sit back and enjoy how easy it goes down.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your margaritas will taste. This is especially true for the limes, which should be juicy and ripe.
- Chill your ingredients: Chilling the ingredients before you make the margaritas will help them blend together more smoothly and create a more refreshing drink.
- Use a good quality tequila: The tequila is the most important ingredient in a margarita, so it's worth investing in a good quality bottle. Look for a tequila that is 100% agave and has a smooth, slightly sweet flavor.
- Don't over-sweeten your margaritas: Margaritas are traditionally made with just a touch of sweetness, so be careful not to add too much sugar or simple syrup. A little bit of sweetness goes a long way.
- Garnish your margaritas with fresh lime wedges: A lime wedge is the perfect garnish for a margarita. It adds a pop of color and flavor to the drink.
