Sugar substitute margarita
Does anyone have a recipe for a margarita with a sugar substitute? Or one that uses real sugar, but less than average?

You can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking. You could even leave it out altogether if you want.

I use equal parts of freshly squeezed lime juice, triple sec, and tequila, plus about ¼ to ½ teaspoon of sugar, depending on the limes, add a bit of water and crushed ice (I don't like so-called "blended" margaritas).

I suppose you could use sugar substitute, but there's still real sugar in the triple sec (or Cointreau if you're feeling like spending money needlessly).
