This margarita! It is my favorite. Not because it has a lot less calories but because it tastes so good. Everyone I have made it for loves it. Nobody has said, this tastes watered down, or this sucks! It is because the flavor is perfect. The trick to getting this super low calorie margarita is in the mix. I use a low-calorie mix that doesn’t add extra sugars.
Try my other skinny cocktail: Prosecco Strawberry Cocktail. It has 97 calories.
Ingredients list for a Skinny Margarita
Master of Mixes, Margarita Mix Lite. This is the secret sauce! This mix has 10 calories per 4 ounces and no added sugars.
Patron Silver. Patron Silver makes the best margarita. The calorie count for 1.5 ounces of Patron Silver is 99 calories.
Grand Marnier. Between Grand Marnier, Cointreau, and Triple Sec, Grand Marnier has fewer calories. For half an ounce of Grand Marnier it is 38 calories.
1 lime wedge. The juice from one lime wedge is not enough to count towards calories.
How many Calories in a Skinny Margarita
This skinny margarita has 144.7 calories per serving. That is half the amount of calories you would drink versus a regular margarita mixer.
I do not rim the glass with sugar (duh, this is a skinny cocktail) or with salt.
