Pro Tips for the Perfect Margarita
- Use high-quality tequila: Blanco (silver) tequila works best for fruity margaritas. Opt for 100% agave tequila for the smoothest flavor.
- Adjust sweetness to taste: If you prefer a sweeter drink, add more honey or a splash of simple syrup.
- Chill your glasses: Pop your glasses in the freezer 10–15 minutes before serving for extra frosty margaritas.
- No frozen blackberries? Use fresh blackberries and add a bit more ice to get the right consistency.
