Expert Tips For Making A Homemade Margarita
- If the margarita is too thick, add a bit more alcohol or even a splash of water to thin it down. Then blend more.
- If you want the margarita thicker, do more mango or less liquid for a thicker cocktail.
- When you first mix up the margarita it will be very thick. But, just know after a few minutes the ice and mango melt a bit and it thins up.

- Add in a 1/3 cup of orange juice for a stronger punch of flavor. Trust me, it really ramps up the tart and sweet flavor.
- Tajin is another option for rimming the glass.
- You could salt the glass if you didn’t want to use chili powder.
