A classic margarita is an excellent choice to pair with your citrusy carnitas feature, as its bright, acidic nature complements the tangy feel of the pork dish. 

Here is a straightforward recipe for a classic margarita:

Ingredients

• Get 2 oz of high-quality Blanco or Reposado tequila.
• Get 1 oz of freshly squeezed lime juice.
• Get 1/2 oz of orange liqueur (such as Cointreau or Triple Sec).
• This is optional: 1/4 oz of agave nectar for a slight touch of sweetness.
• A lime wheel and coarse sea salt for the rim of the glass.

Instruction 

• Run a lime wedge around the rim of your glass and dip it into the coarse sea salt to coat the edge.
• Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the tequila, fresh lime juice, orange liqueur, and agave nectar.
• Shake vigorously for about 15–20 seconds until the exterior of the shaker feels very cold.
• Strain the mixture into your prepared glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a lime wheel.
