Notes
- If at all possible, use crushed ice.
- Note: On average, 1 lime makes about 2 tablespoons juice.
- Tequila – Some of my favorite tequilas are Altos, Patron, Casamigos, and Camarena.
- Lime Juice – Fresh squeezed lime juice offers the best flavor, however, you can use 100% real lime juice found in the juice aisle of your grocery store.
Variations
