Ingredients
3 cups ice
2 fluid ounces tequila
1 fluid ounce lime juice
2 ½ teaspoons low-calorie natural sweetener (such as Swerve®)
1 tablespoon coarse salt
2 lime wedges
1 pint-sized Mason jar
2 fluid ounces orange-flavored sparkling water (such as La Croix®)
Directions
Fill a shaker half-full with ice. Add tequila, lime juice, and sweetener to the shaker. Seal and shake vigorously until outside is frosted, 10 to 15 seconds.

Strain margarita into the jar. Top with sparkling water; stir. Garnish with remaining lime wedge.
Recipe Tip
If you have granular sweetener on hand instead of powdered, you can pulse it in a blender or food processor to achieve a powdered consistency.
