Regrouping in 3… 2… Today we’ve got a teeny fun lil video to prove to you how easy it is to make a pitcher of margaritas for your next crowd, whenever they might find you, like probably in one and a half days for the holiday weekend!
How To Make Our Pitcher Margaritas:
I’ll be honest with you – Pinch of Yum has seen about 1.75 drink recipes in its five years of existence, which is 100% fitting to who I am as a person. The Blog Me would like to know mixed drinks and crafted cocktails inside and out and pat myself on the back for being halfway through my training as a sommelier. Or something. I don’t even know if I’m talking about it right. But the Real Me is the one who makes margaritas in a pitcher at home in my yoga pants (that’s generous – let’s just call sweats what they are) and serves them at dinner club and brings them over to Neighbor Nights and makes them for occasional friends-are-coming-over weekend shindig. That’s about as drink-y as things get around here. Lucky for anyone who might happen to be at my house this weekend, the Real Me is showing up with a pitcher of margaritas to share! Labor Day Weekend is almost upon us – I am chronically late to everything EXCEPT a good long weekend – and I have a feeling that all the friends are coming over to everywhere, and all the foods are going to be eaten, and all of said friends are going to feel happy things together. Like, for instance, if you want to talk food: tacos and hot dogs and Juicy Lucys and state fair food and homemade crackers and cheese and chips and that one corn dip again. <- PS. This corn dip is only in my life because I have a dinner club. Yeah. You need to go start a dinner club TODAY. If you’re making these and you want real lime juice in there (TRUST ME YOU DO), please use one of those nifty citrus juicers. This post contains an affiliate link for that cute, life-saving citrus juicer! 4.4 from 7 reviews 1 cup simple syrup + 2 cups lime juice + 3 parts tequila = 6 cups6 cups = 1 average-sized pitcher = 8 individual margaritas It took me about 15-20 small limes to get 2 cups lime juice. Scale up or down as needed depending on the size of your group! Store any leftover margaritas in the fridge. Good news: this will keep for quite a while! 🙂 Just cover the top of the pitcher well so it doesn’t get any weird fridge tastes.
