We used simple & reliable triple sec in these margaritas, but if you have a preferred Cointreau you’d like to use, feel free to swap it out! Craving something a little less sticky sweet? Try our skinny margarita, which swaps the orange liquor for OJ and agave. More of a mezcal lover? Feel free to swap it out for a smoky, earthy mezcal margarita. Unsure about what type of tequila to use? Blanco tequila is always a solid option, but a good reposado would also be an excellent choice (especially if you’re looking for a smooth, almost caramel-like flavor to turn into a Cadillac margarita). If you’re searching for the perfect tequila for your margarita, there’s no shortage of options. The key to making the best margarita is all in the ratio and balance of the ingredients.

Now one of the most popular cocktails in the world, the margarita is thought to have started out as the variation on another prohibition-era drink called the 'Daisy.' Spanish for 'daisy,' the marg swapped in tequila for the requisite brandy and lime juice for lemon juice, and a classic was born. All you need are 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to make one for yourself-get those limes out, and let happy hour again! We’ve done our fair share of experimenting with this classic cocktail, but when we’re craving a simple, no frills, refreshing cocktail, this classic recipe is the one we turn to. Here at Delish, we can’t get enough of margaritas.
