If you know me, you know I love a good margarita. But I’ve recently learned my aging body does not like the sugary aftermath of margaritas. Also I’m still pretending I’m eating healthy so I mixed up this super easy, delicious, and low calorie pink lemonade margarita for spring!
But seriously, it’s only five ingredients I think you can make this. It’s also less than 100 calories a drink without tasting like it’s less than 100 calories. Uh, yes please!
What you’ll need for 2 good size margaritas:
1/2 cup Orange Juice
2 cups water mixed with 1 Crystal Light Pink Lemonade packet (or 2 cups some other pink lemonade you want to use)
6 oz Tequila
1 Lemon… or lime, you do you
Mix together your pink lemonade packet with your water first. I’m a big fan of these Crystal Light pink lemonade packets for summer drinks. They don’t taste fake sweet and they are only like 5 calories.
Add the lemonade, orange juice and tequila and shake it all up. You can also cut your lemon in half and use the juice of one half for your drinks.
Cut some lemon slices and toss in your margaritas to look cute and impress your girlfriends.
Then serve al fresco because you survived winter and deserve a drink outdoors.
Make sure to take some time to heckle the neighbors.
Do you have any good low cal summer drinks? I’m in desperate need of some drink recipes that aren’t 800 calories or beer.
