If summer had an official drink, this would be it — but with just enough sass to keep things interesting. This margarita isn’t just about tequila and citrus; it’s about Slow Noon magic — our chili-lime-basil seasoning that gives your tastebuds a passport to paradise. Whether you’re sunbathing, grilling, or just pretending your backyard is Belize, this is ...

Ingredients

  • 4 cups Margarita Mix (we like Jose Cuervo)
  • 2 shots Silver Tequila
  • 1 shot Gold Tequila
  • 1 shot Triple Sec
  • 1 shot Blue Curaçao
  • 1 whole Orange (peeled)
  • 1 whole Lime (plus wedges for garnish)
  • 2 cups Ice
  • Slow Noon seasoning (for rim salt)

Instructions

Prep Your Glass Like a Pro

  1. Make a seasoning mound
    Spread Slow Noon seasoning in a small plate-sized mound.

  2. Cut the lime
    Cut your lime into wedges.

  3. Wet the rim
    Run a lime wedge around the rim of your glass, squeezing gently for juice.

  4. Coat the rim
    Dip and twist the rim in Slow Noon until fully coated in glorious chili-lime-basil magic.

Mix the Magic

  1. Load the blender
    In a blender, add margarita mix, silver tequila, gold tequila, triple sec, blue curaçao, the peeled orange, lime juice, and ice.

  2. Blend
    Blend until it’s a smooth, frosty slush.

Pour & Adore

  1. Pour
    Pour into your Slow Noon–rimmed glass.

  2. Garnish
    Garnish with a lime wedge.

  3. Snap a photo
    Snap a photo (you’ll thank yourself later).

Repeat Until…

  1. Repeat
    You’re either out of ingredients or out of daylight.

This isn’t just a drink. It’s a portable happy hour, a mini vacation, and a sweet-spicy story waiting to happen. One sip, and you’ll see why this combo of citrus, chili, and tequila is a must-have for every summer gathering.

Pro Tip

  • Want more heat? Sprinkle extra Slow Noon directly into the blender.
  • Make it a mocktail: skip the tequila and triple sec, swap margarita mix for limeade, and still rim with Slow Noon for a kick.
  • Always, always drink responsibly — the better these taste, the easier it is to “accidentally” have a few too many.
