Time 5m

Yield 1 drink, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 ounces tequila
1 ounce blood orange juice
1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
3/4 ounce Cointreau liqueur

Steps:

  • Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

Tips:

  • Use fresh blood oranges for the best flavor. If blood oranges are not available, you can substitute regular oranges.
  • Choose a good quality tequila. A reposado or añejo tequila will give the margarita a smoother flavor.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice. Bottled lime juice will not give the margarita the same flavor.
  • Rim the glasses with salt or sugar. This is a classic margarita garnish that adds a nice touch of flavor.
  • Serve the margaritas immediately. Margaritas are best when they are served fresh.

Conclusion:

The Texas-Style Blood Orange Margarita is a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its unique blend of blood orange, tequila, lime, and Cointreau, this margarita is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cocktail, give the Texas-Style Blood Orange Margarita a try.
