Pour Don Julio Ańejo Tequila, Grand Marnier, Lime Juice, Simple Syrup, and Chili Powder into an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously. Strain into an ice-filled rocks glass. Garnish with a lime wedge. Salt or sugar rim optional.
In your shaker, mix two ounces of the Patron tequila, ⅓ ounce Patron Lime Liqueur, and ⅓ ounce simple syrup. Use a lime press to squeeze the juice out of half of a lime into the shaker and mix them all together. Grab a cocktail or margarita glass and fill it with ice. Then, pour the best low carb margarita into the glass over the ice.
This tequila is very affordable and can compete with some of the most expensive tequilas. You can sip it or prepare the ‘Don Diego Old Cadillac’ Margarita with this tequila,” Rodriguez says in support of his Añejo preference.
There are a few different brands of margarita mixes out there but I’m gonna use the Jose Cuervo mix as an example. For a 4-oz serving of this margarita mix has just over 100 calories, which all come from carbohydrates. Each serving has 24 g of carbs! It’s basically a blend of water, corn syrup, and sugar.
