In honor of Cinco de Mayo, here is one of my favorite margaritas!

 

Tequila, lime and tangy blood oranges? Yes, please! You need this margarita in your life – it’s frothy, tart, and best of all, pink! Your amount of simple syrup and lime will depend on just how tart your oranges are – so add more or less as necessary! I love Casa Noble Crystal Tequila in this cocktail – it’s very smooth, with just the right amount of kick!
