Seven readers love this post.
You know I love a good Margarita if you follow me on Instagram or have read the blog for long and saw my prior post on Margaritas. In honor of National Margarita Day on Sunday I want to share this fantastic Margarita. I simply adore grapefruit juice. It is so refreshing. This Margarita is the same. Good for a dreary weekend. Great for Oscar watching! I hope you love it like I do.
Pedregal Grapefruit Margarita
- 1½ oz Tequila Don Julio Reposado
- ¼ oz Grand Marnier
- 1 oz Fresh Orange Juice
- 1 oz Fresh Grapefruit Juice
- 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice
- ½ oz Simple Syrup
Instructions
- Rim a rocks glass with lime juice, dip into salt and fill with ice.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add all ingredients.
- Shake well and pour into the glass.
- Garnish with a lime wedge.
- **Note: Make your own Simple Syrup by boiling 1 cup of sugar in 1 cup of water until sugar is dissolved. Cool before using. The stuff in the bottle is not tasty!
- Also, if you are not in to squeezing your own juice, many local markets have fresh juice in the produce sections!

I first had this Margarita at The Resort at Pedregal while seated in the chairs below facing the turquoise blue ocean. The resort has been renamed recently but has same owner, same GREAT resort, FABULOUS staff and AMAZING views!
I’ll be sharing about this great resort shortly. I hope to go again soon!
