For a Grand Marnier margarita pitcher that serves 8, add: 1 cup Grand Marnier, for the float (optionally, simply substitute it in place of the Cointreau) Add the ice and stir until cold. Pour into individual glasses. When serving, add the Grand Marnier float on top (1 ounce per drink or 2 tablespoons).
Run a lime wedge around the rim of a 8-ounce glass and dip in salt. Fill the glass with ice. In a cocktail shaker (or pitcher), add lime juice, orange juice, tequila and agave nectar. Shake or stir to combine. Pour skinny margarita into prepared glass and garnish with a lime and orange wedge.
KETO MARGARITA – This is still a lower-calorie margarita. It has tequila, fresh lime juice, but instead of having an orange-flavored liqueur, I’ve been using an orange-flavored seltzer. It has zero calories but has a nice little orange flavor. If you like your margs a bit sweeter then using a zero-calorie sweetener is what you want to do.
This highly refreshing Grand Margarita cocktail recipe pairs sour lime with earthy tequila notes, adding Grand Marnier’s cognac and bitter orange liqueur flavor for a refined smoothness and heightened drinking experience.
