St. Germain Skinny Margarita

The women in our family love tequila. It could have something to do with our "latina" heritage, love for mexican food, or maybe just our spicy temperaments! Our favorite way to drink tequila is the St. Germain Skinny Margarita. Absolutely no Sweet & Sour mix allowed!! It is light and refreshing, and not too sugary like the original recipe.

Ingredients:
2 limes (for lime juice and garnish)
2 oz of tequila (I prefer Patron Silver)
1 oz St. Germain Liquor
Splash of Club Soda
Sugar for rim garnish





To start, squeeze one whole lime into a bowl and set aside. Use the squeezed lime to wet the rim of your glass. Dip into sugar or salt to coat the rim. I prefer sugar to salt for a little added sweetness. Fill glass with ice, pour 2 oz of Patron Silver Tequila and 1 oz of St. Germain over ice .  Add the squeezed lime juice. Cut the second lime into wedges. I then squeeze about 2 or 3 more wedges into the glass, and place one on the rim for a garnish. Top it of with a splash of Club Soda.
