Notes
Tips
If at all possible, use crushed ice.
Note: On average, 1 lime makes about 2 tablespoons juice.
Tequila – Some of my favorite tequilas are Altos, Patron, Casamigos, and Camarena.
Lime Juice – Fresh squeezed lime juice offers the best flavor, however, you can use 100% real lime juice found in the juice aisle of your grocery store.
Variations
Make it Frozen – Blend ingredients in a blender along with frozen watermelon or mango cubes and ice.
How to Juice Limes
Start with citrus at room temperature.
Roll the lemon or orange with the palm of your hand on a cutting board or countertop to soften it.
