Special Precautions and Tips:

• If you don't have simple syrup, you can make your own by combining equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
• To make a non-alcoholic margarita, omit the tequila and use extra lime juice.
