Pink Grapefruit Margaritas

 From Ina Garten these were absolutely refreshing and delicious! We are not salted rim people so we added the extra salt as she suggested. And she is correct it makes a difference.

1 lime, cut in wedges, optional 

Kosher salt, optional 

1 cup ruby red grapefruit juice 

1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (4 limes) 

1 cup orange liqueur, such a Triple Sec 

2 cups ice 

1 cup white tequila

 If you like a salt rim on the glasses, rub the lime around the edge of the glass and then dip the rim of each glass lightly in a plate of kosher salt. Set aside to dry. 

Combine the grapefruit juice, lime juice, orange liqueur, and ice in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour into a large pitcher and stir in the tequila. 

If you're not serving the margaritas in salted glasses, stir 1/4 teaspoon of salt into the pitcher of margaritas. Believe me, it will make a difference! Serve ice cold.
