Margaritas are one of the first drinks that come to mind when someone mentions cocktails, and Alex Snodgrass can’t get enough of them. Her food blog The Defined Dish is filled with recipes for this beloved mixology classic, and she’s here to help you change the way you look at this cocktail.

Clayton’s Margaritas

Classic margaritas are made with tequila, triple sec, and lime juice, and Snodgrass made only a few tweaks to the original recipe when coming up with this variation. Most notably, she added egg whites to the mix to make this cocktail extra foamy.

Coconut Margaritas

If you’ve never tried adding a few drops of coconut milk to your margaritas, now’s the time to give it a shot. Snodgrass is a huge believer that this ingredient can take your cocktails to new heights, and give them an irresistible, summery vibe.

Grapefruit Margaritas

An equally delicious variation of Snodgrass’s Clayton’s margaritas, this cocktail contains another amazing ingredient. She recommends using grapefruit juice to make your margaritas truly pop.

Smoky Mango Margaritas

If you’re in the mood to try slightly smoky margaritas that taste just like juicy mangos, this recipe will be your cup of tea. The smokiness can be attributed to chipotle chili powder, used as one of the main ingredients in this cocktail.

Have you ever tried a margarita before? This classic Mexican cocktail is a favorite for many, combining the sweetness of agave syrup with the tart flavors of limes and tequila.

Putting a new twist on this favorite drink is the beergarita—a cocktail which adds beer to the equation to make a slightly less alcoholic version with the backbone of a light Mexican beer. Let’s learn how to make it! 

Ingredients

  • 4 12-oz bottles Mexican lager (Corona and Pacifico are my two go-to options)
  • 2 cans (12 oz) frozen limeade, defrosted
  • 400 ml silver tequila
  • Limes, for garnish
  • Salt, for garnish
  • Ice

Instructions

Start off by combining the bottles of Mexican lager along with the defrosted frozen limeade in a large pitcher. Stir thoroughly to combine.

Next, open up your silver tequila and measure out 400 milliliters. Begin by adding about half of the tequila, and then try the mixture. It will be strong enough for some, but not for others. Add as much tequila as you feel comfortable with adding to make the mix stronger up to the 400 ml that you have measured out.

Place this mix inside of your refrigerator, covered, to chill for a couple of hours. When it’s cold and ready to serve, be sure to serve it with generous portions of ice and garnished with lime slices and salt on its rim.

Enjoy your beergarita!
