Recipe Notes

Simple syrup should be kept in the refrigerator so it gets nice and cold before whipping up your margaritas. Simple syrup can be made a few days in advance.

Use pink Himalayan sea salt because it looks so cute with the hue of the drink. You can however use plain kosher salt or sea salt instead. If you don’t like a salted rim, try dipping the rims in sugar.

Store extra margarita mix in the refrigerator. Mix in the blender to freshen.
