Margaritas
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (4 limes)
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (3 lemons)
- 4 teaspoons grated lime zest
- 4 teaspoons grated lemon zest
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 cup tequila
- 1 cup triple sec
- 1 cup crushed ice, plus extra for serving
- Combine the lime juice, lemon juice, lime zest, lemon zest, sugar and salt in a large liquid measuring cup. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the flavors meld, about 2 hours.
- Strain the juice mixture into a pitcher and stir in the tequila, Triple Sec and 1 cup of the crushed ice. Pour over additional crushed ice before serving.
- To make ahead: The recipe can be prepared through step 1 and refrigerated, covered tightly with plastic wrap, for up to 2 days. The longer the mixture sits, the more it mellows, eventually losing any harsh acidity and tasting of pure citrus only.
