skinny margarita

mommyskis

Just got this recipe at a bridal shower and it's awesome.

1 liter ginger ale
1 tub crystal lite (I used raspberry)
8 oz. tequila

Stir it together in an ice cream bucket and freeze. It just freezes slushy because of the alcohol. The girl who gave out the recipe said it should make 8 servings at 100 calories each. They are delicious! I read somewhere that the average restaraunt margarita is 500-600 calories, so this is a much better deal.:drinker:

But I may have to try yours, I think I will use sprite zero instead!

I think it'll be even "healthier"!!! (atleast less calories)


I have mine now, I just put in patron and sprite zero, and squeezed in some lime juice, it's FABULOUS!! :drinker:

I'm definately going to try it with sprite zero, I'm really into margaritas lately.

Thanks!.....Living in Baja we've enjoyed many margaritas and I've been missing them since we've been dieting!

I am just going to make my 2nd bucket full of margaritas! Has anyone tried diet ginger ale? How does it taste? That would make the margaritas like no calories.

My "margarita"

1-2 oz tequila
real lime ( the lime juice in a bottle)
1 packet of splenda
splash or lime flavored club soda

I like my glass rimmed with salt, and it gives me more of the "illusion" that I am drinking a real margarita!
