How to Make Annie's Margaritas
- **Make the Simple Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved (about 6-8 minutes).
- **Cool the Syrup:** Remove from heat and let cool completely. For best results, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate overnight.
- **Prepare the Margaritas:** Fill a blender with ice. Add 1 1/2 cups tequila, 1/2 cup orange liqueur, and 1/2 cup lime juice.
- **Adjust Sweetness:** Add simple syrup to taste, starting with 2-4 tablespoons and adjusting to your preferred level of sweetness.
- **Blend:** Blend until smooth and frosty.
- **Prepare Glasses:** Chill margarita glasses in the freezer. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of each glass and dip in coarse sea salt.
- **Serve:** Fill glasses with ice. Pour margarita mixture into glasses. Garnish with a lime wedge and enjoy!
