Things might get awkward, however, if you have a three year-old. What that, mommy? he might ask as he sleepily wanders in from his rare (but wildly applauded) nap and youll explain that youre making orange juice from special red oranges and youll realize by the look on his face that your child you, a person that turns flour into bread, potatoes into pasta, sugar into caramel hadnt realized that orange juice didnt come in a carton and to fend off the feelings of failure, put him to work and pour him a glass of something he found so outstandingly delicious, you all but forgot about that Pity Party you were planning.
No need to.

Blood Orange Margaritas
Its been over seven months since the last SK drink recipe. Lets fix that.
Note: If you dont have triple sec or cointreau, simple syrup will make for an equally sweet but less boozy result.
Serves 2, but only if you share.
1/2 cup blood orange juice
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
3 tablespoons triple sec or cointreau, or more to taste
7 tablespoons white or silver tequila
Lime or blood orange slices for garnish, plus some of those drink umbrellas
Mix. Fill two glasses with ice and divide between them. Garnish. Drink and daydream.
