Cocktail Friday: Grapefruit Margarita with Spiced Salt Rim
Margarita Time! Make yours special with our Grapefruit Margarita with Spiced Salt Rim.
Who doesn’t love a good margarita? Baby, I love them! But not that sweet & sour mix bottled stuff that tastes more like floor cleaner than a classically gorgeous cocktail! When you switch over to only fresh juices and no added sweeteners, that’s what the artificial stuff will eventually taste like to you. I can live with that! Hit the curb crappy cocktails! Our Grapefruit Margarita meets all those requirements and has a Spicy Salt Rim to really get the party started! 
Fresh and blushing pink, this Grapefruit Margarita is made with ruby red grapefruit juice, fresh lime juice, dry curacao, and silver tequila. That’s it!! 4 simple ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen and a spicy salt rim made with kosher salt, cayenne pepper, and a bit of sugar. Every sip is like a party! Happy Margarita Time!
