    If you are looking for another skinny margarita recipe I will point you to my Keto Margarita recipe. Just like a regular margarita but without simple syrup to other added sugar.

    Another twist on the classic margarita is my blood orange margarita. This non traditional margarita has fresh-squeezed blood orange juice, lime juice, silver tequila, Cointreau and an optional salty rimmed glass.

    ✨ Here is why this margarita with champagne is amazing:

    • 4 simple ingredients
    • No need to make a simple syrup or purchase a sour mix
    • Perfect for an alternative to champagne for the New Year Toast.

    🍾 Ingredients needed:

    Champagne Margarita ingredients with text overlay.

    Here is a visual overview of the ingredients in the recipe. Scroll down to the recipe at the bottom for quantities.

    📝 Ingredient notes:

    • Lime juice - fresh is best
    • Silver tequila - Silver tequila is bottled directly right after distilling and does not have color because it is not aged in barrels. Silver tequila has a strong taste and is perfect for this mixed cocktail.
    • Triple sec - an orange-flavored liqueur made from dried orange peels. See the substitute below.
    • Champagne - Champagne is a sparkling wine produced in the Champagne region of France.
    • Fresh lime slices or lime wedge for garnish
    • Coarse salt for garnish

    🔄 Substitutions

    Cointreau can be on the pricier end of the orange liqueur price range. Traditional triple sec, Grand Marnier, Combier Liqueur d'Orange and Patron Citronge Orange Liqueur are all great substitions for cointreau.

    If you have kids at your party or someone not drinking alcohol a beautiful alternative is cucumber lemon ginger water. Beautiful in the glass and so refreshing!
