There are few things more refreshing than a cold margarita on a hot summer day. This classic cocktail is the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and strong, and we think it’s the perfect way to enjoy tequila. Our recipe uses fresh lime juice for a tart flavor, and just a touch of triple sec to sweeten things up.

Of course, if you want to keep things even easier you can use FICKS Premium Margarita Mix, where you just combine tequila and margarita mix for a lower sugar cocktail.

If you’re looking for a fun twist on the classic skinny margarita, try adding a splash of fruit juice or muddled fruit to the mix. We love adding a little bit of grapefruit juice for a tart and juicy margarita, or muddling some raspberries into the mix for a sweet and fruity twist. No matter how you make it, we think you’ll agree that this is the perfect skinny margarita recipe.

FICKS is on a mission to bring a better for you bar to America through our low sugar cocktail mixers, and real fruit hard seltzer. Thanks for keeping it real!
