It’s hard to replicate the delicious taste of a Margarita, but the Virgin Margarita presents something a little different. If you’re able to accept that this is a different cocktail altogether, you’ll almost certainly find yourself enjoying this fresh and fruity concoction. Best made with fresh lemon, lime, and orange juice, the Virgin Margarita is the perfect mocktail for morning, afternoon, or night.
