Skinny Margarita

To rim the glass: kosher salt, lime wedge

silver tequila (about 3 tablespoons)

freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1 large or 1 1/2 small limes)

freshly squeezed orange juice (about 1/2 medium orange)

light agave nectar (add 2 if you prefer a sweeter margarita)

Ice

Optional ingredients (see below)

 on top and stir.

Swap the citrus: In place of orange juice, try grapefruit juice (my favorite), blood orange juice, or pomegranate juice.

Rim it up: Instead of just salt, try mixing half salt and half sugar into your rim blend. A pinch of chipotle powder is another of my favorite twists.
