Notes
For the juice mixture:
Freshly squeezed juice is worth it! We squeeze ours ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator. This juicer from Amazon is a lifesaver.
Squeeze: 2 cups orange juice, 2 cups lime juice, and 1 cup lemon juice. Strain the orange juice and lime juice as you pour them into your container. Store it in the fridge. Fresh juice only lasts a few days — a week if you're lucky. However, you can freeze it and take it out when ready to use (allow some defrost time). It will separate and need a good shaking when you defrost it.
Simple Syrup:
We are snobs and don't like store-bought simple syrup. Honestly, it is silly to buy it when you only need two ingredients to make it: water and sugar. Boil 1 cup of water with one cup of sugar. Once boiling, keep it at a low boil for about one minute, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Allow it to cool, then pour into a glass container. We use a glass bottle designed to hold olive oil.
It is obviously super helpful to make the juice mixture and simple syrup ahead of time so you can grab it all when margarita mood strikes.
