cocktail time......

As I was sitting here thinking about what I should blog about today, my friend Abby called... Mid conversation we started talking about her weekend, cocktails and her new love for Skinny Girl Margaritas ;) And for those of you who know me, you know my complete and utter love for SKINNY MARGS! I think I can say not being able to have one on a hot summer day was the hardest thing about being prego...

I am a huge fan of Bethanny Frankel's Skinny Girl

 It is easy for on the go, super convenient for a quick cocktail and only like $12 bucks. 

But I thought today I would share the recipe I use to make my home-maid drinks. I also share this recipe with every bartender and waiter I order a drink from...... This recipe guarantees the freshest taste and is super low in calories.  Try to find bottles that say "100% agave" or just "pure agave". As a general rule, you'll probably get the best quality drink by buying the brand with the highest percentage agave that you can afford. By law tequila must be made with 50% of the juice of blue agave, so then the cheaper brands end up just using cane syrups or sugar for the other 50%.

**so keep that in mind next time your shopping -added sugar is the devil. It is cellulite, fat, calories and a hangover waiting to happen.

Boog's Fav Margarita-

a beautiful glass w/ salt on the rim and crushed ice

a few fresh lime wedges

2 oz of clear tequila

2 oz of Grand Marnier or Triple Sec (which ever you can afford)

STIR AND ENJOY!!

remember you can eat or drink anything you just need to be smart about it
