A nice variation of the Margarita. I had this for the first time at Macaroni Grill and this is my DIY version after many fun attempts.

How To Make italian margarita

  • 1
    Use the squeezed lime shell to moisten the rim of the glass, then dip into sugar to coat the rim.

    Put all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with some ice and shake until frosty. Strain into the prepared glass.

    You can also make this frozen but add a bit more Amaretto so the taste doesn't get diluted. Sometimes I use Amaretto to moisten the rim instead of lime.
