This monkfruit is 0-calorie, 0-carb and 0-sugar, making it perfect for a keto diet. I also have not experienced a cooling effect or aftertaste.  You only need 1 tablespoon for just over a cup of simple syrup, so a small 2 ounce bottle is enough about 4.5 cups of simple syrup (or over 60 margaritas)!

You can try this method with other liquid sweeteners, but be aware that not all liquid sweeteners have the same level of sweetness. Depending on the brand, you may need a little more or a little less — You may want to try adding 1 teaspoon at a time until you reach a reasonable level of sweetness for your syrup.

How to store homemade simple syrup

This sugar free syrup can be stored in the fridge for several months. Before you use it, just give it a good shake to be sure everything is mixed well.

What should I serve with this keto margarita?

I always like to start a Mexican night with this Chuy’s Jalapeno Copycat Dip. For your main course, try Marinated Flank Steak, Instant Pot Tacos or Keto Sour Cream Enchiladas! Another favorite of mine is Shrimp con Queso or Grilled Shrimp Skewers. For dessert, try these Keto Cinnamon Twists!

Ingredients

Sugar Free Simple Syrup

• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon liquid monk fruit sweetener

Mango Margarita

• 1.5 ounces tequila
• 3/4 ounce lime juice
• 1/2 ounce sugar free simple syrup
• 1/2 ounce chopped mango
• 2 ounces orange sparkling water (optional: this gives the hint of orange that triple sec usually provides)

Instructions

To make the simple syrup:

1. Combine 1 tablespoon of liquid monk fruit sweetener with 1 cup of water. Store in an airtight container; it'll last several weeks in the fridge.

To make the mango margarita:

1. In a blender, add the mango, tequila, simple syrup, and lime juice. If making a frozen margarita, add the ice as well. Blend until well incorporated.
2. Wet and salt the rim of your glass and fill it with ice (unless serving the margarita frozen). Pour the margarita into the glass and top with sparkling water if you'd like to add a citrus flavor most margaritas have.
