Margarita Mix

Squeeze enough limes to get 1 cup of fresh lime juice.

Squeeze enough lemons to get 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice.

In a small saucepan, combine equal parts sugar and water to make simple syrup. Heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Let it cool.

In a large pitcher, combine the lime juice, lemon juice, simple syrup, and 1 cup cold water.

Stir well to mix everything together.

Refrigerate the pitcher until the mix is well chilled.

Serve as a base for margaritas or enjoy over ice.
