Orange margarita

When it comes to mixed drinks, there are few that can rival the popularity of the margarita. This refreshing cocktail, traditionally made with tequila, lime juice, and triple sec, has become one of the most commonly ordered drinks at bars and restaurants around the world. But while the classic margarita is a delicious and timeless concoction, there are plenty of other ways to enjoy this refreshing drink. One of the most popular variations is the orange margarita.

While the exact origins of the orange margarita are unclear, it is likely that this variation of the classic drink was first created sometime in the mid-20th century. Like the classic margarita, the orange margarita is made with tequila, lime juice, and triple sec. However, instead of using the traditional lime juice, this variation calls for orange juice.

There are a few different ways to make an orange margarita. The most common method is to simply combine the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. This results in a drink that is both refreshing and flavorful.
