MARGARITA

A simple margarita recipe Why this simple margarita recipe? Because it’s Margarita Week! Our friend Kate Ramos of the website ¡HOLA! JALAPEÑO (who we recently got to meet in person in LA!) has organized a group of bloggers to post different margarita-themed recipes for the entire week. Head to this Margarita Week page to see all the recipes! And keep reading the backstory of our simple margarita recipe. Why natural sweet margaritas? So: why naturally sweet margaritas? Well, number one: somehow Alex and I don’t have a classic margarita recipe posted here on A Couple Cooks! Why this is important: the margarita is my favorite drink. I LOVE tart flavors and the sweet tart of the margarita is just about perfect for me. Number two: as I mentioned, Alex and I are not fans of super sugary drinks. So our perfect margaritas are naturally sweet margaritas, with just enough sugar to compliment the tartness of the lime. Alex developed this naturally sweet simple margarita recipe to be my perfect blend of tart and sweet. The margaritas are finished off with a few drops of orange bitters. If you’re looking to make these vegan naturally sweet margaritas, you can use maple syrup to make the simple syrup instead of honey. They’re perfect with a big dish of artichoke quinoa vegetarian enchiladas for a Cinco de Mayo menu! Happy Margarita Week! Thank you to Kate for organizing this event, and head to the page to see all the other margarita recipes, from cocktails to desserts. Naturally Sweet Simple Margarita Recipe | A Couple Cooks
