How to Make Citrus Margarita
- **Combine ingredients:** In a large pitcher, combine 2 oz of orange liqueur (such as Cointreau or Triple Sec), 2 oz of premium tequila, 1.5 oz of fresh orange juice, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz of fresh grapefruit juice. Stir gently to combine.
- **Chill:** Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and chill thoroughly.
- **Prepare glasses (optional):** If desired, rub the rims of margarita glasses with lime wedges and dip in coarse salt, rotating gently to evenly coat.
- **Fill glasses with ice:** Fill the prepared margarita glasses with ice.
- **Shake and strain:** Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the chilled margarita mixture. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well-chilled.
- **Strain and garnish:** Strain the margarita into the ice-filled glasses. Garnish each serving with a slice of orange, lime, and/or grapefruit.
