Triple Berry Margaritas Recipes

MIXED BERRY MARGARITA

Steps:

• Use a wedge of lime to wet the rim of a glass and dip in either sugar or salt.
• Add berries and simple syrup to the glass and muddle.
• Stir in lime juice and tequila.
• Top with ice and garnish with fresh berries if desired.
• Note: If the seeds from the blackberries bother you simply strain through a sieve before serving.
• Note: To make a large batch of simple syrup just combine equal parts sugar and water. I do 1/2 cup water 1/2 cup sugar. Keeps in the fridge for up to a month.
