One of my guilty pleasures (yes, I have more than one) is the margarita. I can't help it. Margaritas are delicious. They are also filled to the brim with sugary chemicals that I really don't want in my body. Although I love margaritas, I'd much rather be drinking a margarita made from natural ingredients. This kind of margarita would, undoubtedly, be healthier and it would probably be a little easier on the body calorie-wise, as well.

In between sipping my regular, not-at-all-healthy margaritas, I did some research and found a recipe for an organic margarita. Eager to see if it would still be delicious, I tried making it myself and I was floored! Not only did this margarita taste awesome, but I would argue that it was over all more satisfying because I knew I was putting healthy ingredients into my body.

I felt compelled to share the recipe, so here you go:

1.5 ounces of tequila http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/05/most-huggable-160.php . (4 Copas makes organic tequila you can use.)
1/2 ounce of pure organic acai
3/4 ounce of organic agave nectar
1/2 ounce of organic egg white
1 organic lime, squeezed

Shake until metal shaker is frosted and then strain into a chilled glass. Enjoy!
