Some of my friends only drink craft beer, while others prefer wine or cocktails. Over the years, a growing number started gravitating toward the sparkling water selection. And so, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-mocktail-recipes-fresh-fizzy-not-too-sweet\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-mocktail-recipes-fresh-fizzy-not-too-sweet\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">mocktail recipe<\/a>s like this virgin margarita have become a party staple.<\/p>\n<p>This nonalcoholic margarita captures the sweet, tart, salty essence of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/classic-margarita\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/classic-margarita\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">classic margarita<\/a> without any of the booze. You can make it for two for any ol&#8217; taco Tuesday, or scale the recipe to make a pitcher for a crowd. It&#8217;s a perfect summer sipper for all-ages backyard barbecues and baby showers.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Make a Virgin Margarita<\/h2>\n<p>I&#8217;ve tried several ways to make virgin margaritas, including dressing up bottled limeade or nonalcoholic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-margarita-mix\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-margarita-mix\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">margarita mix<\/a>. Most of those attempts fell flat because they failed to capture the freshness of a really good margarita. Fresh citrus is vibrant and bright, but it&#8217;s a little tart on its own. Mixed with a bit of sugar and a splash of club soda, the juice mellows and gains a balanced, refreshing taste.<\/p>\n<p>That club soda is the real secret behind this nonalcoholic margarita. Club soda contains minerals (an important distinction between club soda and seltzer). That minerality affects the flavor and mouthfeel of the mocktail, giving it depth and complexity. Plus, the bubbles create a pleasant drinking experience and help carry the sweet and tangy flavors of the drink.<\/p>\n<h2>Virgin Margarita Ingredients<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lemon and lime juice:<\/strong> We mix lemon and lime juice in equal parts for a just-right balance of sour and bitter tastes. Freshly squeezed juice makes a world of difference, so skip the bottled products. If you don&#8217;t have a citrus juicer, check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-juice-lemons-the-easy-way\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-juice-lemons-the-easy-way\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">easy way to juice lemons<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Superfine sugar:<\/strong> This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/types-of-sugar\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/types-of-sugar\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">type of sugar<\/a> dissolves more quickly than granulated sugar. Feel free to substitute maple syrup, honey or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-agave-nectar\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-agave-nectar\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">agave nectar<\/a>, although the mocktail will taste slightly different.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Club soda:<\/strong> Club soda adds complexity to the sweet lemon-lime mixture and gives the drink an effervescent finish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the lemon-lime mixture<\/h3>\n<p>In a small pitcher, combine the lime juice, lemon juice and sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Salt the rims, if desired<\/h3>\n<p>This step is optional to create a salt-rimmed glasses. Moisten the rims of two margarita or cocktail glasses with lime wedges, reserving the wedges for garnish. Sprinkle salt on a plate. Dip the rims of the glasses in the salt.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Tip:\u00a0<\/em>Spice up the rim by adding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-tajin-seasoning\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/what-is-tajin-seasoning\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Tajin seasoning<\/a> to the salt.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Pour over ice<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1979234\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Virgin-Margarita-FT24_275628_JR_0221_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Two virgin margaritas and a bowl of salsa on a blue tile floor\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Divide the crushed ice among the prepared glasses. Pour the lemon-lime mixture over the crushed ice. Top off each glass with 2 tablespoons club soda and the reserved lime wedges.<\/p>\n<h2>Can you make virgin margaritas ahead of time?<\/h2>\n<p>You can make virgin margaritas up to four days ahead of time. Prepare the lemon-lime mixture, then transfer it to a jar with a tightly fitted lid. Store it in the refrigerator until you&#8217;re ready to serve. Pour the mixture over ice, and top with club soda as directed.<\/p>\n<h2>Recipe Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Make frozen virgin margaritas:<\/strong> Blend the lime juice, lemon juice, sugar and 2 cups ice in a high-powered blender. Cover and process until smooth. You won&#8217;t need to use the club soda, so save it for another time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add flavor:<\/strong> Instead of club soda, substitute a flavored <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/healthy-carbonated-drinks\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/healthy-carbonated-drinks\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">carbonated drink<\/a>, preferably one with little or no sugar. Otherwise, the drink might taste too sweet.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use flavored simple syrup:<\/strong> Substitute a homemade <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-simple-syrup\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-simple-syrup\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">simple syrup<\/a> for the sugar. Infuse the syrup with flavors like orange peel, basil, thyme or spicy peppers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make a pitcher:<\/strong> It&#8217;s easy to scale this recipe for a crowd and make a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/margarita-pitcher-recipe\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/margarita-pitcher-recipe\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">pitcher of margaritas<\/a>. Divide your guests by two, and multiply each ingredient by that number. You can make the lemon-lime mixture in advance, but we recommend adding ice and club soda just before serving to keep the drink fresh.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make it fruity:<\/strong> Muddle blackberries or strawberries in the glass before adding ice, or add frozen mangoes or peaches to the blender for frozen margaritas.

Because tonic water is high in sugar, you may want to reduce or omit the sugar in the lemon-lime mixture. Some women avoid quinine while pregnant, so check with your guests before preparing virgin margaritas with tonic water for a baby shower.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You don&#8217;t need store-bought limeade, zero-proof alcohol or any fancy ingredients to create this refreshing summer sipper.
