Thirsty Thursday: Skinny Margarita

May 6, 2010

Hope all of you had a wonderful Cinco de Mayo yesterday!  And hopefully no one is still suffering this morning.  Haha.  So…I know I’m a little late because I know this would have been helpful yesterday, but how many of you have heard that margaritas may be so tasty, but can pack on the extra pounds, fast?  Because the margarita is filled with sugar and other yummy ingredients, it sure contains a lot of calories.  Well, let me introduce you to the Skinny Margarita.  I had heard of it before, but came across it again on MMM Times the Charm’s blog, and decided to use the recipe this week.  It’s a pretty simple recipe.  I’ve never had one before though, so if you try it before me, let me know how yummy it actually is.

Skinny Girl Margarita

– 2 ounces of white/clear Tequila
– Fresh lime juice
– Splash of Cointreau, Triple Sec or Grand Mariner
– add Splenda if desired

Salt rim glass, pour in all ingredients, stir and ENJOY!

So does this mean if I have one of these everyday, I become skinny?  A girl can dream, right?

And what I would wear?

Simple, yet the colors will pop, with such a neutral dress.  Love it!

P.S.  The location yesterday was British Columbia.  Specifically, photo #1 was Lake Louise in Banff, #2 was the town of Whistler, #3 was The Chateau at Lake Louise, #5 was the city of Vancouver.  Lovely area of Canada.  Someday I hope to travel to Prince Edward Island on the opposite side of Canada (the upper east side).  It is supposed to be beautiful, and I grew up reading and watching Anne of Green Gables, and that’s where it’s said to have been filmed.  Can’t miss out on that opportunity when it comes around…one day!

  5. Oh, wow! I love that dress. I have made a promise to myself that I would not buy anymore clothes till I go on vacation this summer. But seeing this dress makes me want to break that promise and buy it!!!

  6. Great minds think alike! Haha. I've never tried a skinny margarita, but you've inspired me to try it out! Maybe this weekend. 😉 And that ring is stunning. I love that deep blue. Have a great day, Ashley!
