Grilled Margarita Recipe

Author: Robyn

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs limes/lemons plus a few oranges sliced in half
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¾ cup tequila
  • ¼ cup triple sec
  • 1 cup simple syrup to taste
  • 1 pitcher full of ice

Instructions

  • Dip the sliced citrus in a bowl of sugar so they have a light coating. Grill the citrus on medium high heat until they have char marks. Let them rest until they are cool enough to be juiced . Fill your margarita pitcher halfway full of ice, then add the tequila and trip sec. Add the juice to the ice/tequila mixture- by adding it to ice it will help cut the tartness of the citrus. Add the simple syrup in small batches until the proper sweetness is achieved.
  • Enjoy your first smoky margarita that goes great with grilled foods, specifically my chili lime skirt steak fajitas!
