Non-Alcoholic Margarita Ingredients

Lime juice
Lemon juice
Orange juice
Simple syrup
Kosher salt, for rimming glass
Lime wheels, for garnish

This mocktail is totally customizable to your personal preference. If it’s too tart for your taste, feel free to add more simple syrup and/or orange juice.

How to Make Simple Syrup

Simple syrup is just like the name says… simple. To make it, combine equal parts granulated sugar and water in a saucepan over medium to medium high heat. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

It keeps for up to a month when properly stored in a jar in the fridge, so I always make extra to use later.

How to Make By the Pitcher

When I prepare these margaritas by the glass, I use a cocktail shaker. When making by the pitcher, it’s easier to stir the ingredients.

Multiply the liquid ingredients by the number of servings you want, pour into a pitcher and stir until combined. Pour into salt-rimmed glasses filled with ice and garnish with a lime wheel.

Cheers, and enjoy!
