- 2. Let the mixture come to room temperature.

- 7. VARIATION: Margarita mix usually leaves out the lemon juice for a lime based sour mix. So you can make this without the lemon juice as a substitute for margarita mix. Based on personal preference........you may want to add more lime juice to get a stronger flavor.
