At Summers in Paradise we only recommend the finest products for our clients. So, I’ve decided to break down and reveal the Secret Recipe for the “Paradise” Margarita. Warning – this will forever change your preference for a classic Margarita and you probably won’t be able to tolerate any other blend!
4 oz Blanco Tequila – Patron Silver is the #1 choice.
Using High end, exotic sipping tequilas is a waste. Similar to adding Coke to a smooth 90+ Bourbon.
1 oz Orange Liqueur (Not Orange Juice!) – Curaçao
Curaçao is made from the Laraha fruit or curaçao orange on the island of Curaçao, just off the northern coast of South America and is usually subtly spiced. In a pinch, use the bland version called Triple Sec.
1.5 oz Fresh squeezed lime juice (very ripe) – Usually 2 large limes
0.5 oz Key Lime Liqueur – Kē Kē
0.5 oz Agave Nectar (optional to make it a little less bitter if desired)
