Is this MARGARITA better than the original!?

Pre-made cocktail mixes often get a bad rap and for good reason and margarita mixes are at the center of that debate. They’re often cloying and don’t provide the refreshing clean flavor I want in a margarita. For that reason I completely abandoned margarita mixes years ago. I want my margarita to have that perfect balance of sweet sour and strong and I couldn’t replicate that with a mix.
Now that summer is here there’s nothing quite like a fresh margarita. There are many variations on the classic from shaking it with salt in a shaker to jalapeño lime lemonade to my personal favorite watermelon margs but they often require an arm workout from squeezing so many fresh limes. Those limes are also the reason most mixes turn out so badly: citrus juices quickly lose their fresh flavor once they’re bottled and processed.
