Homemade Margaritas vs. Margarita Mix
Typical margaritas are full of added sugar, added color, and ingredients you can’t name from their pre made mixes. Plus, it’s nearly impossible to know what’s actually in them. The mango in these avocado mango margaritas provide a natural sweetness that will make you question whether or not you ever want premixed margaritas ever again.
One of the best elements of making homemade margaritas (other than the amazing taste) is that you can control the ingredients you put in, and how sweet your drink is! To cut back on the sweetness, you can always add a slightly larger serving of sparkling water and lime juice.
