Margaritas are, hands down, the best summer drink. They’re cool, they’re pretty, they’re sexy, and they can be sweet or sour.
And I’m here to tell you how to make super simple designer margaritas.
Ready?
Okay. All you need is sugar, ice, tequila…and Kool-Aid.
That’s right–Kool-Aid’s not just for kids anymore. No sirreee.
Pick out your favorite, most intriguing Kool-Aid flavor. Ice-Blue Raspberry Lemonade, anyone? Swirling Strawberry Starfruit? Soarin’ Strawberry Lemonade? You get the idea.
Make the packet of Kool-Aid (I usually don’t add as much sugar as the packet calls for) as directed, and then use that as your margarita mixer. Add tequila and ice to taste…and voila!
Designer margaritas.
Let me know how it goes and how much of the pitcher you drink yourself, okay?

Hi!
Very fitting that you are posting a blog about Margaritas. They are hands down my favorite summer drink. Okay, winter too. I’m not so sure about the Koolaid though, unless they’ve improved the taste since I was a kid. In the spirit of good scientific research, however, I’ll experiment with this and see what I think. Thanks for the idea!
