Green Juice Margarita Recipe

Green juice margaritas are perfect for when you want to be healthy but also want to get hammered.

Two high ball glasses filled with Green Juice Margaritas garnished with edible flowers and lime wheels.

I first tried one of these a few years ago at Broken Spanish in downtown LA and have been hooked ever since. For whatever reason, the taste of the green juice melds incredibly well with tequila.

I like to make my own green juice blend specifically to complement the alcohol in this recipe, but if you don’t have a juicer or want to save time, you can just pick up a bottle of already made green juice.

Tiny clothespins & dehydrated limes seem to be all the rage in the garnish world right now, so I hopped on that bandwagon.

To make the dehydrated limes, I simply sliced a lime and placed in my dehydrator for 24 hours at 165 degrees F.

To really bring the garden, spring vibe through I also used edible flowers that I’ve been growing in my garden. They were ready just in time for this recipe.

    What a refreshing way to enjoy tequila! I won’t go to the trouble to make my own juice, but I will try this out with some store bought stuff. Thanks for the idea.
