For the best flavor, use organic, thin-skinned limes, as they tend to be juicier and less bitter.
Adjust the sweetness to your preference. Some may prefer a tarter margarita, while others may like it sweeter.
If you don't have a high-powered blender, you may need to blend the limes for a longer period to achieve a smooth consistency.
Chilling the glasses beforehand will help keep your margaritas colder for longer.
Feel free to experiment with different types of tequila to find your favorite flavor profile. Blanco tequila offers a brighter, cleaner taste, while reposado provides a slightly more complex, oaky flavor.
Consider adding a splash of agave nectar for a more natural sweetness.
To make a large batch, simply multiply the ingredients accordingly. This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for parties.
For a spicy kick, add a few slices of jalapeño to the blender.
