Instructions

Stir all ingredients together until blended. If you feel the margarita needs sweetening, add simple syrup to taste.
Serve over ice in sugar- or salt-rimmed glasses, garnished with lime wedges or slices if desired.
*Just about any homemade green juice will work for this recipe. I made mine in a juicer with 3 oranges, 2 green apples, 2 inches fresh ginger, 2 limes, and 6 handfuls of fresh spinach. You can also puree the fruit in a blender or food processor and strain it through a cheesecloth or fine-mesh strainer if you do not have a juicer.
**Any store-bought green juices will work for this recipe. I recommend going with a sweeter juice, but go with whatever you’d like.
