This past weekend was absolutely incredible. With the arrival of homecoming weekend at my alma mater, so came the arrival of all of my long lost soulmates! Such excitement called for cocktails, and anyone who knows us knows we love margaritas. Blood orange ones to be exact. But one of our favorite happy hour joints took them off the menu!
With such a travesty upon us, we got crafty and hit the liquor store for supplies. We ended up going with a bit of regular orange juice as well because it’s easier to find in stores and allows for a whole lot less juicing, and all the more time for playing!
If you’re looking for something fresh, fruity, and a little boozy, I promise these won’t disappoint. Enjoy with a best friend and a little warm weather!
Ingredients:
(makes 8 generous margs)
4 cups Orange Juice
3 cups Silver Tequila
1.5 cups Triple Sec
3 Blood Oranges
4 Limes
Sea Salt
Pour the OJ, tequila, and triple sec in a pitcher. Squeeze the juice from 3 limes and 2 blood oranges and add to the pitcher. Stir (or shake).
Rim glasses with sea salt by dipping them in a plate of shallow water and then in a plate of salt.
Pour the margaritas over ice and squeeze a little extra blood orange juice on top for color. Garnish with a lime and blood orange slice. Cheers and let the party begin!
