So the “Sip and Dip Spring Soiree” is around the corner, not to mention Cinco de Mayo.. Hmm, got us thinking tequila I gather? I’d love to simply pop in here and say, “se vuelven locos” on the stuff! But, as always, with my mentality and my purpose, comes the truth and the proposal.
I wouldn’t call tequila an evil drink of choice, although your hangover from a tequila overdose can be quite demonic. Tequila’s main ingredient comes from the blue agave plant, which means the main ingredient in tequila is merely concentrated (albeit mostly natural) sugars. That being said, go easy on the added ingredients, consciously making an effort to avoid piling the sugar on top of the sugar is your best bet to keep this choice “skinny.”
So go ahead, grab yourself some Sauza brand tequila, throw it in the blender, pile on some all natural lime juice, rocks, a little club, maybe even add in a hot pepper or two, and sip on what I’d call a “Delgada Margarita!!”
Cheers,
JP
