Frequently Asked Questions About Skinny margarita

How do you make a skinny margarita?

Shake tequila, fresh lime juice and a small amount of orange liqueur with ice, then strain into a glass. For a less-sweet skinny margarita, leave out the syrup or use only a small amount; recipes vary.

Does a skinny margarita have less sugar than a regular margarita?

Usually, yes: a skinny margarita is made with less added sweetener than many regular margaritas. The name does not guarantee a particular recipe, though, and bottled mixes or orange liqueur can still contribute sugar.

What is in a skinny margarita?

A skinny margarita typically contains tequila, fresh lime juice and orange liqueur, with little or no added syrup. Some recipes use orange extract instead of liqueur, so the ingredients—and whether it contains alcohol—can differ.

Can you make a skinny margarita with bottled margarita mix?

Yes, but many bottled margarita mixes contain added sugar or sweeteners, so they may make the drink sweeter than intended. Check the mix’s ingredients, or use fresh lime juice and tequila to control what goes into your skinny margarita.

What tequila is best for a skinny margarita?

Blanco tequila is a popular choice for a skinny margarita because its crisp agave flavor pairs well with lime. Reposado works too, adding a smoother, lightly oak-aged flavor; choose one you enjoy sipping.

Can you make a skinny margarita ahead of time?

Yes, you can mix the tequila, lime juice and orange liqueur ahead and keep the mixture chilled. Add ice and any soda just before serving so the skinny margarita stays cold and does not become diluted or flat.

Is a skinny margarita less alcoholic than a regular margarita?

Not necessarily. “Skinny” describes a lighter approach to sweeteners, not a lower alcohol content; the amount of tequila and orange liqueur determines how alcoholic the skinny margarita is.

What does a skinny margarita taste like?

A skinny margarita tastes tart, citrusy and distinctly agave-forward, often with less sweetness than a classic version. If it is too sharp for your taste, add a small amount of sweetener rather than pouring in a sweetened mix.

Can you drink a skinny margarita while pregnant?

No. A skinny margarita made with tequila or orange liqueur contains alcohol, and it should be avoided during pregnancy. For a similar citrus flavor, make an alcohol-free version with lime juice, soda and nonalcoholic orange flavoring.

What food goes well with a skinny margarita?

A skinny margarita pairs well with tacos, grilled fish, ceviche and other lime-forward dishes. Its tart citrus flavor also cuts through rich or spicy foods, making it a natural match for Mexican-style meals.

What is Skinny margarita?

A skinny margarita is a lighter take on the margarita, a tequila cocktail associated with Mexico. It typically combines tequila and fresh lime juice, while using less orange liqueur or sweetener than many classic recipes; some versions use a little agave instead. The exact mix varies from bar to bar.

Tart, citrusy and often served over ice with a salted rim, it suits warm-weather gatherings, restaurant meals and home cocktail hours. It has relatively few carbohydrates, with 3.8 g per 100 g. For a fresher, less-sweet drink, use plenty of lime and measure the sweetener rather than pouring it freely.
