    Title: Virgin Margarita
    Categories: Beverages, Citrus, Mocktail
    Yield: 4 Drinks

    1/2 c Lime juice
    1/2 c Lemon juice
    1/4 c Superfine sugar
    Crushed ice
    Club soda (or Squirt)
    4 Lime wedges; optional
    1 tb Kosher salt; optional

    Make the lemon-lime mixture

    YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS HERE: on the rocks, or frozen. The
    rocks version is the easiest and least time-consuming
    way to make a virgin margarita (and, it dirties the
    fewest dishes to boot). Simply combine the lime juice,
    lemon juice, and sugar in a small pitcher, stirring
    until the sugar has dissolved.

    For Margaritaville-style frozen drinks, blend the lime
    juice, lemon juice and sugar with 4 cups of ice in a
    high-powered blender. Blend until the mixture is nice
    and slushy.

    PREPARE THE GLASSES: For a true margarita experience,
    you’ll want to prepare a salted glass. This step is
    optional, of course, but it does make the glasses look
    fancy. Start by swiping one of the lime wedges around
    the rim of the glass. Then, pour some coarse salt onto a
    small plate and dip the edge of the glass into the salt,
    rolling it around until the edge is coated.

    FILL ’EM UP AND ENJOY! Next, fill each glass with the
    lemon-lime mixture. If you went with the rocks version,
    fill the glasses with about 1-1/3 cups of crushed ice,
    first. Top the drink with a splash of club soda and
    garnish with a slice of lime, if desired.
