Equipment
- High-powered blender
- Glasses for serving
Ingredients
For the Margarita:
- 2 cups frozen strawberries
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- ½ cup white tequila 100% blue agave blanco recommended
- ¼ cup orange liqueur Cointreau, Grand Marnier, or triple sec
- Ice optional, for thicker consistency
- Lime wheels and fresh strawberries for garnish
For the Mocktail Version:
- ½ cup orange juice
- ½ cup water
- 1-2 tablespoons simple syrup optional, for sweetness
Instructions
- Blend the Base: In a high-powered blender, combine half of the frozen strawberries, lime juice, tequila, and orange liqueur. Blend on high until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
- Adjust Consistency: With the blender running, add the remaining frozen strawberries one at a time until the desired smooth consistency is reached. Add ice if you want a thicker texture, or a splash of water to thin it out.
- Serve: Pour the margarita into glasses (rimmed with lime and sugar, if desired). Garnish with lime wheels or fresh strawberries.
- Mocktail Version:For a non-alcoholic version, blend frozen strawberries, lime juice, orange juice, water, and simple syrup until smooth. Serve as described above.
Notes
- If you prefer a sweeter margarita, you can add a splash of simple syrup to taste.
- You can substitute fresh strawberries for frozen; just add ice for a slushy texture.
- For a larger batch, simply multiply the ingredient quantities. Blend in batches for the best consistency.
- Store any leftover margarita in the freezer and thaw slightly before serving.
