Skinny Margarita
from Well Plated

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.

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

Make it fruity: Muddle fruits like strawberries, blackberries, slices, or raspberries in the bottom of your glass, then pour the margarita on top and stir.

Make it spicy: Add a few sliced jalapeños to your shaker

Optional ingredients (see below)

To rim the glass: kosher salt, lime wedge
