Skinnygirl Margarita | Camille StylesIf there’s anything we love more than a girls’ night out, it’s a chill laid-back night in with our best friends. And our all-time favorite place to get together? Camille’s backyard pool, of course! When the weather’s blazing hot in Austin there’s really nothing better than getting together for and evening swim, snacks, and some ice cold margaritas. Camille used the occasion to introduce us to Skinnygirl® Cocktails and we’re already becoming total converts to their fun line of ready-to-serve cocktails. We threw on a few records by the pool and taste-tested the Skinnygirl® Spicy Lime Margarita cocktail over ice (I know. We have super hard jobs.) Everyone agreed — it was, to our delight, subtle, light, not-too-sweet, and incredibly easy to drink.

The Skinnygirl® Spicy Lime Margarita blends natural flavors like cool lime and spicy chili mixed with premium blue agave silver tequila. And we love the fact that this is one cocktail we don’t have to feel guilty about — Skinnygirl® Cocktails are all made to be low-calorie drinks that taste good, too. We dressed ours up by pouring over hand-crushed ice, rimming each glass with kosher salt, and adding a lime wedge garnish to each drink. Bottoms up!

Camille paired our low cal cocktails with a healthy snack as well. She served her signature guilt-free chips and queso appetizer with mango chutney salsa and a green tomatillo salsa.  Margaritas, chips and salsa we don’t have to feel bad about? Now you’re talking!

Chanel played dj with a few old favorites included ZZ Top’s classic album Tres Hombres. With drinks this good (and guilt-free) we didn’t think twice about the second round. Cheers!
