How to Make Margarita Mix
Try making this margarita mix for your next party. It’s so easy to mix up your own simple syrup from water and sugar, then all you have to do is add your fresh squeezed juices and it’s ready to go!
I like adding a little bit of orange juice to my margarita mix, but that is totally optional.
The orange gives the mix a less tart flavor. Keep this margarita mix chilled for up to a week.

For a while, I was struggling hard with the perfect homemade margarita! And then I came across this recipe! It has been simply a blessing for me.
Hi Amy, thanks for the recipe! I can’t imagine summer without margarita 🙂
I can´t wait to make one of this! Thanks for sharing
Such a beautiful recipe and you have described everything so nicely that really helped me lots. I want more of such recipes in future too.
I like this recipe because it’s flexible. You can add liqueur if you want something boozy and stay alcohol-free so the kids can drink it too. Freezing them is an excellent idea because you can prepare everything all at once, pop them in the freezer, and consume them whenever you want.
Can you make the margarita mix with flavors and if so how would you measure the additional ingredient. Thanks.
Hi Amy,
I can’t wait to try this recipe! The pre-made margarita mixes are often way too acidic for me, and I’ll bet this one is so much better. Thanks so much for sharing. 🙂
Please fwd me the margarita recipe pls.
