Instructions
Simple Syrup:
- In a small saucepan, add the sugar and water. Mix and place on low to medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, until it has thickened and you cannot see any sugar left.
- Turn off the heat, and set it aside. Let simple syrup cool to room temperature (or store in the fridge) before using.
Frozen Margarita:
- Place your tajin or salt onto a flat small plate.
- Use a wedge of lime to moisten the rim of your glasses. Dip the edges of the rim of the glass onto the plate with tajin or salt. Set aside.
- Place your lime juice, Tequila, Cointreau, simple syrup, and ice in a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Serve immediately and garnish with mint or extra lime slices or a floater - an extra shot of tequila on top!
