Fresh Sweet-N-Sour Mix for Margaritas image

Best recipe I've ever found! As a professional drinking-ista, I've collected my favorite drink recipes from restaurants and bars over the years from around the globe. This comes compliments of Cafe' Iguana in Denver Colorado... home of one of my faves, the Yucatan Margarita. This FRESH mix is the key to any truly good margarita. Life is too short to drink neon yellow store bought sweet and sour mix!

I followed the recipe exactly and the mix turned out really watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of margaritas, but I tried this mix with tequila and it was really good! I think I'm a margarita convert now.

This mix is perfect for margaritas, but it would also be great in other cocktails. I'm thinking of trying it in a daiquiri next.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I used a combination of oranges, lemons, and limes. The mix turned out great!

This sweet and sour mix is the perfect balance of sweet and sour. It's not too tart or too sugary. I used it to make margaritas for a party and everyone loved them!
