Frozen Strawberry Margaritas
One perk of making fruity frozen cocktails is that you don’t need to splurge on the most expensive liqueurs to achieve fantastic results. A good quality 100% blue agave blanco (aka silver or white) tequila, an orange liqueur, such as Cointreau, Grand Marnier, or regular triple sec, and some fresh lime juice to pull it all together.

Ingredients
- 1 16- ounce bag frozen strawberries
- ¼ cup fresh lime juice 2 large limes
- 4 ounces white tequila
- 2 ounces orange-flavored liqueur such as Cointreau
- Lime wheels and whole fresh strawberries to garnish
- Optional:
- Ice or water if needed, to adjust consistency after blending
- Coarse sugar and lime wedges to coat glass rim
Instructions
- Place half the frozen strawberries into a high-powered blender. Add lime juice, tequila, and orange-flavored liquor. Cover and blend on highest setting until smooth, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Remove vent cap on blender lid and add the remaining frozen strawberries one at a time while the blender is still running. Continue blending until all strawberries have been added and the mixture is completely smooth. Note: For thicker margaritas, add some ice until desired consistency is reached. For thinner consistency, add a little water.
- Pour into serving glasses and garnish with lime wheels and/or fresh strawberries right before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
Note: For thicker margaritas, add some ice until desired consistency is reached. For thinner consistency, add a little water.
Tip: If desired, rub a lime wedge along the top of each glass and dip into a shallow bowl filled with some coarse sugar before filling.
