Creating Your Cantaloupe Margarita

Creating your very own cantaloupe Margarita isn’t hard. Grab your tequila, Grand Marnier, and triple sec and some cantaloupe mix and you have yourself a delicious margarita. Check out everything you need blow. Trust us you won’t regret trying this one. If you are aren’t a fan of the cantaloupe powder we suggested you can cut up a fresh cantaloupe and blend well to create a juice. Just add a little lime and sugar to the mixture if you find it a bit tart! This is a great way to cut out some calories.

Cantaloupe Mocktail Option

We love a good mocktail option for drinks. Especially if you are planning on having a party. For this Cantaloupe Margarita you will need to replace a few ingredient to make it a mocktail. For replacing your Tequila you can use non-acholic tequila if you wish to keep that flavor or you can use soda or sparkling water. The other ingredients you will need to sub out are Grand Marnier (which is an orange flavored Brandy) and Triple sec an Orange liqueur. Since both are orange based we suggest using orange juice with a little water or sparkling water or an orange flavor sparkling water so its not too strong. Play with it until you get the flavor you want.
