We love a simple Margarita! Welcome to the best bitch batch margarita recipe. This tried and true margarita recipe has served as a mainstay of our parties. Forget the mixes! This is a classic Margarita recipe you can make in minutes.
Developed in the days of college house parties, this recipe can be inexpensive or not so inexpensive (insert your brand of tequila). This the best large batch margarita recipe for a crowd. Just Pitcher Perfect
If you want to make this spicy, slice a few jalapenos (with the seeds) and let them soak in the bottom of the pitcher.
Rim your glasses with coarse salt. I find that this is easily accomplished by wetting the rim with one of the sliced limes. Fill the glass with ice and pour your tasty concoction. Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel.
