…in this case we used multicolored sprinkles! Look at how pretty they look!
How about something orangey? We made a super simple orange sugar by mixing orange zest with granulated sugar.
Still on the sweet side, we used color sugar crystals. This one is great for themed parties. Maybe you’re having a pink, yellow or blue themed party? Buy the colored sugar that matches and enjoy!
Let’s move to a more savory idea, shall we? How about a chili salt. That just sounds fancy, doesn’t it? Well, it may sound fancy, but it is ridiculously easy to make. Mix together course salt and some Mexican chili powder. It will be smoky and packed with flavor.
Then, for our spice lovers, we made a jalapeno-lime salt! It’s spicy, fresh and is perfect with that margarita. Mince a jalapeno (no seeds) super fine then mix with lime zest and coarse salt. Dip in the glass and you’ll be on your way to a fantastic party!
Speaking of a party, how about this idea – Set up a station with two or three of the ideas above, lots of glasses and a pitcher of margaritas. Then, your friends can choose their own and get involved. They’ll love it and you get to spend more time enjoying the party!
Enjoy!
