Sparkling Margarita Water

I’ve had a few Margaritas in my day… in fact, it’s probably my most favorite cocktail on the planet. But these days, cocktails and I don’t agree.

Well, we agree that we aren’t friends, so I guess there’s that.

I’ve slowly come to terms with it… almost. But that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy a pretend one. No sireee.

Here’s how to make this Sparkling Margarita Water:

You’ll need some lime and some orange extract. You can use an orange slice, but I had this on hand, yo.

Fill a glass with ice… crushed if you have it. Because let’s face it. Crushed ice is the diggity-bom.

Squeeze a quarter of a lime into the ice.

Add a few drops of orange extract.

Then pour your sparkling water into your glass.

LOVE those little fuzzy bubbles.

Here’s the kicker though… Add just a pinch of Sea Salt. It’s the awesome-train, y’all!

It may not be the authentic, adult version, but it’s mighty fine.

Mighty fine.
