These lime margaritas are Trouble (with a capitol T). They are strong and packed full of flavor. Personally, I cannot stand a super sweet margarita. If I can taste the simple syrup then something has gone wrong! This is a light margarita with lots of fresh lime juice and just a gentle touch of simple syrup. The next time you are craving Margaritas on #tacotuesday I highly recommend trying out this recipe!
Margaritas are such an easy cocktail to whip up at home. They are really just citrus and tequila with some simple syrup! All you have to do to prep this drink is squeeze a ton of limes and whip up a little bit of simple syrup. To make this, just simmer equal parts water and sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved.
