How to make a blueberry lemonade margarita low carb

I love a good Margarita ! I’m not talking about the classic margarita kind so much though. Like the ones that are a Margarita glass with ice, syrup and tequila. I really love the fruity ones, the ones that really pile on the carbs and calories. Because of that I am always looking for ways to replicate my favorite drinks in a low carb version. One thing that I have found that makes almost any fruity drink possible are the MIO water enhancer drops. No, they haven’t paid me, I just really like the variety available. In this case I used blueberry lemonade water enhancer along with tequila and Meyer lemon to recreate a blueberry margarita.

So pretty!

You may only be able to have one cocktail a week or you may be able to get away with one every night. It’s going to be different for everyone. Please be sure to use a really good tequila. There’s nothing worse than cheap tequila (unless it’s cheap vodka) and it will show in your recipe.

A regular blueberry lemonade margarita or blueberry margarita usually contains high carb ingredients. The first thing to go was adding granulated sugar. One recipe I found added 1/4 cup of granulated sugar for the syrup. Others call for simple syrup which is just sugar and water. Also, fresh blueberries. A half a cup of fresh blueberries has 11 carbs. Some recipes call for blueberry puree or blueberry syrup (lots of sugar !). A few fresh blueberries for garnish is no problem as they are tasty and nutritious.
