In this episode, you’ll learn how to make to make a Classic Margarita that’s as easy as uno, dos, tres! The best ‘rita is one that’s fresh and uses top quality ingredients like silver tequila (100% agave), orange liqueur (such as Patron Citrónge or Cointreau), freshly squeezed lime juice, sea salt flakes and a dash of blue agave nectar. And you won’t sweat the calories in this tequila cocktail. This Skinny (ish) Margarita weighs in at about 200 calories per serving. And if you’re really concerned about your caloric intake just tweak the ratio (more lime juice, less liqueur) to your liking. So mi amigo, toss that store bought margarita mix and get shakin’ and sippin’ this Labor Day weekend!
This is the first video tutorial in the Margarita Madness lineup. The Naughty Tipples that will be served next include a Prickly “Tuna” (Cactus Pear) Margarita, a Jalapeño Cucumber ‘rita, a Weeds Margarito / Mojito-rita and a Lazy Girl Margarita.
If you missed the previous video you’ll want to tune in now to watch how to make an Eclipse Cocktail.
FYI: This celestial gin libation isn’t limited to space geeks and Twilight Saga freaks!

thanks for sharing your awsome video…peace
Next in the Margarita Madness lineup will be the Prickly Pear Margarita! And that will be my Naughty Tipple for Labor Day weekend :o)
@vlogolution Taughty sipples…
I will have to try the sea salt flakes. They look like fun!!!
@STILLNAKEDBULLWINKLE I love them. They’re light and fluffy.
@vlogolution Light and fliffy (sic)…
Awesome , I want one ! yeba yeba yeba wooohooo my clothes are falling off just thinking about it looks good
@treasurecolector That’s some party you’ve got there, lol!
You can have the salt , and please do not crush the ice.
@scottsrfun I use cracked ice for a Margarita on the rocks. Crushed ice only for frozen. And gourmet sea salt flakes (non-iodized) are way better than coarse kosher salt. They’re delicate & melt on the tongue.
omg! wheres your ring from?! its gorgeous!!
@KITANA91 thanks. i think the design is by nOir jewelry.
My mom’s name is Margarita, I can’t drink my mom.
@RioXavier Yes, please don’t drink your mother. However, if you’re of legal drinking age in your part of the globe do sip and enjoy a Classic Margarita (responsibly).
@vlogolution LMAO, even if hes not, still do
wonderful vid
@yusufkhan2266 Thank you!
more ass shots would have been better
@45678975011 That’s for another cocktale…cocktail.
in this heat this drinks looks so cool
@bedtimecoka It’s perfect for summer but good all year round too!
we leftists don’t have hot girls like you. our chicks could use some tips from you free market gals on beauty tips
@chrispollock All wannabe classical lib femmes should spend their disposable income on beauty products and salon services often and liberally. It will stimulate both the economy and interest of potential high net worth suitors.
@vlogolution very good. i always wondered how we can improve the looks of our girls here on the left. you conservative gals win on that front hands down!
Hmmm, I never heard of margartia up? Blended, on the rocks, or frozen but up? No Gran Marnier? I love that on top of the drink. I see 1800!!! Yes! Have you ever tried CAbo Wabo Sammy Haggar’s Blue Agave Tequila? It is very good!!! Nice job but you hardly made an appearance you sneaky tease!
@STILLNAKEDBULLWINKLE I’ll save the Cadillac ‘rita for another video. Speaking of Cadillacs, I’ve never seen a Moose drink a Cadillac or drive a Cadillac. However, I DO NOT condone Woodland creatures or humans too consume alcoholic beverages and then operate a vehicle or other machinery.
@vlogolution It better have a mooseroof is all I am saying. With my rack, I need all the room I can get. I wish people would love me for my mind and not my body. See how dumb that sounds girls? Just kidding
Intelligence and wit is sexy and that means you are in the Megathreat category and first on the list. Forget about triple threat! You are in the Megathreat category. If Einstein were a woman, he would be you but hot and not nerdy ugly. know what I am saying? 
Margarita Carmen Cansino aka Rita Hayworth would be my guess but meh =X not sure
@thingermahjig Sure about that? No backsies.
@vlogolution lol yeah ffinal answer? =D
Great vid Michelle….. Love it
@DonaldTrump3 Lol, thanks Donnie. Send my regards to Melania too.
BP Oil Spill? OMG!
@enigma800 Your Gulf seafood probably drank a few…..
She’s so cute
@Rockguitarnow Margarita is sweet…and sour.
woot I dig me some ritas!
@TheRock5tar Me too! Forget Margaritaville – this is the first in Margarita Madness!
will you go out on a date with me? plzzzzzz!
@123adrianramirez My viewers can date me by subbing my videos and joining me on Facebook. Hehe. And best yet, it won’t cost them anything. After all, I have expensive taste.
@vlogolution Haha….Well my budget goes to infinity
rare is my taste as well as expensive. I’m obviously a subscriber but not yet one of you’re boyfriends on Facebook. Though I will request you today 
Will you accept me?
I bet half of this people who watch this just to see her and not caring about the drink! LMFAO
@emotzki more like all of them!
@rezalini Are you one of them?
@vlogolution uhuh
@emotzki Why’d you watch? Surely for my Naughty Tipples.
We just started drinking Patron Tequila That stuff is really great they say the margarita is the most ordered drink. Thanks Michelle. c];-)
@1dockthorwho23 I think better ingredients do make for better cocktails. Always make sure it’s 100 percent agave. No, mixtos – 51% agave tequila and whatever else.
The girl’s name is Margarita Cansino aka Rita Hayworth. I loved her in The Strawberry Blonde and Angels Over Broadway.
@VinnyCage Are you sure now? ;o)
Best body ever sexies on earth.
zomg <3 u n ur vids D;
