Notes

Note 1. You can easily find frozen pure calamansi juice packets at Filipino markets or through the Weee! Grocery delivery app. We always have this ingredient on hand because it's convenient for drinks, marinades, and other Filipino dishes. The 1/2 oz packets are perfect for one serving of calamansi juice, or in our case, margaritas. But if you can find fresh calamansi, we love that for you!
