- Is silver or reposado tequila better for margaritas?
Which tequila should you use to make margaritas? Both Julian and Dave recommend using blanco, joven or reposado tequila for making margaritas. Blanco will give your margarita more of a true agave flavor while reposado is for those who want a smoother taste.
