This Margarita Cake captures the refreshing citrus flavors of a margarita in a moist, tender cake. Infused with lime, tequila, and orange liqueur, it’s perfect for anyone who loves a good cocktail with a twist. The light lime glaze adds an extra layer of flavor, and the salted rim gives it the finishing touch.
