Ingredients
Tequila. I always like using blanco tequila for margaritas! It has more of a citrus taste, so I find it pairs better with fruity margarita flavors.
Triple Sec. You can use triple sec or any orange liqueur, like Cointreau.
Light Agave Nectar. I like to mix 1 cup of agave nectar with ¼ cup of hot water, just to make it easier to mix with the rest of your ingredients.
Lime Juice. Fresh is best! Trust me, juicing the limes is so worth it.
Black Edible Glitter. I always recommend using black edible glitter as opposed to activated charcoal in Halloween cocktails. Activated Charcoal could mess with your stomach and overall gut health, so to make sure everyone has a good time at your party, I would buy black edible glitter.
How to make black magic margaritas
- In a large pitcher, combine your tequila, triple sec, agave, and lime juice.
- Store in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
- Once ready to serve, add in your black edible glitter.
- Mix well and pour over black salt-rimmed margarita glasses filled with fresh ice.
Substitutions and variations
Vodka. If you really don’t like tequila, you can always substitute vodka!
Orange Liqueur. Like I said, if you don’t have triple sec, you can always use an orange liqueur like Cointreau.
Honey. Honey is such a good substitute for light agave nectar!
Lemon Juice. If you don’t have lime juice, lemon juice makes for a delicious margarita, too.
Garnish ideas
- Halloween Gummy Candy
- Dried Lime Wheels
- Black Salt Rim
- Lime Twist
