How to Make an Orange Margarita
Step #1: Rim your favorite glass with sugar and add ice. If you enjoy all things margarita, then I recommend checking out my Jalapeño Margarita, Cadillac Margarita, and Avocado Margaritas! Blanco Tequila (also known as Silver or Plata): This is a clear, unaged tequila that provides a pure, robust agave flavor. It’s often used in margaritas because of its assertive flavor which holds up well against the lime and orange juices. If you want your margarita to have a bold tequila taste, blanco tequila is the way to go. On the other hand, Reposado means “rested,” and these tequilas are aged in oak barrels for between 2 months to 1 year. This aging process mellows the agave flavor and imparts a subtle woody or caramel-like flavor. Reposado tequila can make your margarita more smooth and complex.
