Whole Citrus Margaritas Recipes

Steps:

• Cut limes into quarters; remove and discard the center part of the rinds. Transfer lime quarters to a blender with water, tequila, sugar, orange liqueur, and salt. Blend until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
• Strain mixture into a large measuring cup or small pitcher. Serve over ice and garnish with lime slices.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill on medium-high heat. Slice 2 of the limes and 1 of the lemons into rounds. Set aside.
• Cut the oranges and the remaining 6 limes and 4 lemons in half crosswise. Pour 3/4 cup of the sugar in a bowl. Dip the cut side of each fruit in the sugar to lightly coat.
• Grill the sugared fruit over medium-high heat until caramelized with char marks. When cool enough to handle, use a fork or citrus reamer to juice the grilled citrus. There should be about 2 cups of grilled citrus juice.
• Stir the remaining 1/2 cup sugar into the juice and add the tequila, stirring to combine. Refrigerate until chilled.
• When ready to serve, pour the drink mix into a large pitcher of ice. Add the sliced citrus rounds and serve over ice in glasses rimmed with sugar.
