Summer Guide: The Skinniest, Laziest, and Cheapest Margarita
Promise me this: you will never purchase "Margarita Mix" again, okay? That ecto cooler colored, corn syrup filled fluid is not good for you! And you know what, it tastes like Mountain Dew. Sorry, Bethany Frankel, but your bottled Skinny Girl Margarita falls into this category as well (although it most certainly contains aspartame and not corn syrup).
If you are into the Dew we can't be friends anymore, sorry.
Recipe for Erin's Margaritas:
Triple Sec: forget it. You don't really need it.
Lemon Lime Seltzer: obtain it
Tequila (any kind, preferably silver)
- Pour into a glass full of ice
- Top with lemon lime seltzer
enjoy!
Feeling fancy? Add some fresh lime, a splash of OJ, grapefruit juice, or agave nectar

Hey! I like Mountain Dew Code Red. It tastes like liquid Jolly Ranchers mixed with sweet desperation.
I have not tried code red, so you are offered an exemption.
Perfection! I think I'm going to make this my Official 29th Birthday Cocktail!!
