Brady Nutrition Spin on the NorCal Margarita

Going paleo certainly brings some real challenges if you intend to unwind with a drink or two from time to time. I have to admit my main source of cheating is beer. I have always been a bit of a beer connoisseur and manage to make my own from time to time. Even though I do not intend to cut out beer entirely it is nice to have some options when you are trying to lean out or just stay as clean as possible. Robb Wolf created the NorCal margarita and he certainly deserves the credit. My wife and I have tweaked his recipe a bit and here it is. If you decide to add stevia make sure what you pick up is pure stevia as many of the products out there have other additives. If you have never used stevia, start out small it is pretty concentrated.

Ingredients:

• 1-2+ shots of your favorite tequila
• 1 Lime
• 1 Lemon
• 1/4 tsp. of pure stevia (optional, a little sweet balances things out)
• Club Soda
• Crushed ice
• Himalayan Sea Salt

Directions:

1. Slice the lime and lemon in half
2. Squeeze the contents into a pint glass
3. Add stevia if desired
4. Add your desired number of shots of tequila (we usually do two)
5. Fill glass with ice and top off with club soda
6. Get the rim of your serving glass damp and cover with sea salt
7. Pour the contents of your pint glass into your serving glass and ENJOY!
