Patron Skinny Margarita Recipe Ingredients
The tequila is the star of the show when it comes to making the best margaritas around. We like to use Patron Anejo Tequila along with Patron Lime Citronge Liqueur. The combination of these two makes for the absolute best margarita you’ve ever tried.
Like any other good cocktail, simple syrup is necessary and then what you do with the flavoring is up to you, but to keep it light, stick with light ingredients.
How to Make a Patron Skinny Margarita:
Add two ounces of Patron tequila to a cocktail shaker. Add 1/3 ounce Patron Lime Liqueur to the shaker with 1/3 ounce simple syrup.
Cut a lime in half and use a lime press to squeeze the juice of one-half lime into the shaker. Gently shake to mix the ingredients.
Fill a cocktail glass or small margarita glass with ice and pour the Patron skinny margarita ingredients over the ice. Top with a splash of club soda and garnish with a lime.
This skinny Patron margarita is one of our favorites and we hope you enjoy it, too! You may find that you can decrease the amount of simple syrup over time, and thus reduce calories further in this skinny margarita recipe.
