If you love Mexican cuisine, chances are, you love to pair several dishes with a margarita. This is one of the most popular drinks at a Mexican restaurant. While there are many people that enjoy a juicy lime in their margarita, that isn’t the only fruit that is used in the popular drink. Eddie’s Mexican Restaurant is here to talk about some of the many other fruits that you can enjoy just as much when you choose a margarita to pair with your favorite Mexican dish.
Fruits That Are Delicious in a Margarita
There are several fruits that can be great additions to a margarita. We would like to highlight some of the favorites:
– Lime: You can never go wrong when you add lime to your margarita. This is the most popular fruit used in this popular drink. The combination of lime juice and tequila as well as your sweetener of choice is something to behold. It’s no wonder most people reach for the limes whenever they are ready for a margarita.
– Mango: If you are looking for a much sweeter margarita, you might want to ditch the idea of a tart lime and choose a sweeter fruit like mango. This intensely sweet and soft fruit can be a great dose of Vitamin C in your next margarita. The flavor is unique while many people will compare it to a peach or pineapple mix of flavors.
– Tamarind: Tamarind is known to help lower cholesterol as well as boost your heart health. However, it is also a great addition to any margarita. It is the perfect mixture of sweet and sour. Since it gives you a hint of both of those flavors, it can be a perfect way to balance out your drink. One thing to remember about tamarind is that it will get sweeter the longer it is left to ripen.
– Watermelon: Watermelon is a summertime favorite for many. Did you know that it can be an amazing drink as well? This deliciously sweet fruit can add the cool, refreshing flavor that you’re looking for in a margarita.
– Passionfruit: If you have never tried passion fruit, you might want to give it a try in your next margarita. It has a somewhat tart flavor, and the seeds are often ground up in the drink because so many people enjoy the texture it adds. It offers a boost of vitamin A, fiber and vitamin C as well to your margarita.
