Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Tequila (preferably blanco)
- 2 cups Triple sec or orange liqueur
- 2 cups Freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1.5 cups Simple syrup
- 6 cups Ice
- 0.5 cups Coarse salt (for rimming glasses)
- 4 pieces Lime wedges (for garnish and rimming glasses)
- 4 pieces Orange slices (optional garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the simple syrup ahead of time if you do not have pre-made syrup. Combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan, heat until the sugar dissolves completely, then cool.
Juice the limes to yield 2 cups of freshly squeezed lime juice. Strain the juice if desired to remove pulp.
In a large pitcher or beverage dispenser, combine the tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and simple syrup. Stir well to mix all the ingredients thoroughly.
If preparing in advance, refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour to chill.
To rim the glasses, run a lime wedge around the edge of each glass. Dip the rim into a small plate of coarse salt to coat. Tap off excess salt.
Fill each glass with ice and pour the margarita mixture over the ice. Stir gently.
Garnish with lime wedges and optional orange slices before serving.
Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly.
