Notes
Mark your calendar! February 22 is always National Margarita Day in case you need an excuse to prepare homemade margaritas!
This recipe was formulated with Friends Drift Inn Strawberry Jalapeno Jam. We cannot predict how other products will perform.
We used a Reposado tequila in the test kitchen. Like bourbon, each brand of tequila has a unique flavor profile. Experiment with several brands to find what works for you.
For parties, you could mix in a big batch eliminating the ice until time to serve.
