Splenda Margarita Mix

February 14, 2018 by hannahhossack 1 Comment

Splenda margarita mix – a lower sugar version of a margarita. Post Sponsored by Splenda.

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love a good cocktail, myself included; but they can be quite high in sugar. One of my favourites is a margarita, so today I am sharing Splenda’s recipe for a lower sugar margarita mix.

Instead of the usual Triple Sec which gives a margarita it’s lovely hint of orange flavour but is a liqueur with a high sugar content; this recipe uses Splenda Granulated for sweetness, and orange extract for the orange flavour. This means that you can still enjoy a delicious margarita that is lower in sugar (and therefore calories), even if you are trying to cut down on sugar.

Splenda is so handy for swapping out for sugar in loads of recipes to help you cut down on your sugar intake. This margarita mix takes literally just five minutes to mix up so why not give it a try for Valentines Day today!

  • I've been quiet on here for a while as I just haven't had the time or energy for social media. Rest assured that I have still been working hard on recipes for the blog however! The latest recipe I have just posted is this vegan version of a traditional German stollen bread. It is rich, moist, studded with fruit, filled with marzipan and full of festive flavours. It is one of my absolute favourite Christmas treats so I'm thrilled to have perfected a vegan one (even if it did take four attempts!). What are your favourite festive bakes that you would like to see a vegan version of?

  • Happy weekend! If you fancy a weekend baking project then might I suggest this absolutely delicious vegan mincemeat cake? It is a wonderfully moist and flavorful cake that is great anytime but would also be perfect for using up a jar of mincemeat if you've had one too many mince pies at Christmas. It would also make a lovely alternative to a traditional Christmas cake if you aren't a fan of fruitcake. The recipe is on the blog, link in profile.

On a side note, just want to give a shout out to @blackvelvetstyling who provided the gorgeous 'Earl' backdrop in this photo. I absolutely love Sophie's backdrops, they may be paper but the print quality is amazing and they are totally matte to shoot on (they are also so much more affordable than painted boards!). This one was gifted but I have purchased lots of others and genuinely love them. Well worth checking out if you are in need of new backdrops. 🖤 #bvsbackdrops

  • This amazing vegan lasagna is new on the blog and it is seriously good! A rich mushroom ragu is layered up with a creamy bechamel sauce and sheets of pasta. It is hearty, filling, totally delicious and pretty healthy too! Link in profile.

Also, how lovely is this backdrop from Black Velvet Styling?! @blackvelvetstyling You would never be able to tell that it is actually paper and not a beautiful rustic wooden table!

  • It's not long until Stir Up Sunday (24th nov this year) when you are meant to make your Christmas puddings, cakes and mincemeat, so I have just posted the recipe for this delicious vegan Christmas pudding!

It is rich, moist, boozy and very easy to make. I think that it is just as good as, if not better than, the classic suet and egg laden version! The recipe is on the blog, link in profile. #christmas #christmasrecipes #christmaspudding #stirupsunday #veganchristmas #veganpudding #vegandessert #vegantreats #veganfoodlovers #veganrecipes #veganfoodshare #veganuk #vegansofinstagram #veganeats #still_life_gallery #foodblogfeed #foodandwine #forkyeah #foodblogger #foodartblog #foodlovers #foodfluffer #sweettoothforever #vzcomade #bestofvegan #hautecuisines #feedfeed @thefeedfeed
  • Who did some baking over the weekend? I baked this delicious vegan pumpkin pie!
