Ingredients for these Skinny Margaritas

Silver Tequila: The base of this margarita, silver tequila is typically used to add a subtle kick and depth of flavor to the drink.
Fresca soda: Instead of using traditional margarita mix, we opt for Fresca soda, which provides a tangy and slightly sweet taste without the added calories or artificial ingredients.
Lime juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice adds a burst of citrusy freshness, balancing out the flavors and adding a zesty twist.
Kosher salt (optional): For those who enjoy a salted rim, kosher salt can be used to garnish the glass, enhancing the overall experience.
If you like your margaritas a bit sweeter, try adding some homemade Stevia Simple Syrup to the mix.

FAQ for Skinny Margaritas

Can I use a different type of soda instead of Fresca?

Can I make these margaritas in advance?

Yes, you can! Prepare a batch of the margarita mixture in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, simply pour over ice and garnish with lime and salt for a quick and hassle-free drink.
