Let’s talk about cocktails, shall we?  Everyone that knows me will confirm that I am a wine-lover.  If we’re out to dinner or in a social setting, wine is normally my drink of choice.  That being said, I love a good margarita.

I think that if I’m going to have a real cocktail, it should be fun. And frozen margaritas are basically grown-up slushies. Does it get more fun than that?!

I always feel like I shouldn’t order a frozen drink when we’re out somewhere. I’ve never been a bartender or worked in a restaurant, but I imagine it’s probably pretty annoying to have to blend up something frozen when you’re busy instead of mixing a quick, cocktail shaker beverage.  Maybe that’s why I love my at-home margarita recipe so much. My dad has been making these for friends and family for years, and they are always a hit!

Quick. Simple ingredients. Delicious.

So… want to make them?  All it takes is a can of frozen limeade, tequila, triple sec, a splash of lemon-lime soda and some ice. Oh, and a blender!

This is also an easy recipe to personalize to your liking.  Add in some strawberries or mango if you want! Eliminate the alcohol and up the amount of lemon-lime soda to make a mocktail. Almost anything goes! Below is a super delicious Blackberry Margarita I made for an upcoming post… same recipe, just added a blackberry reduction to the blender too.  Check back for the recipe in a few days!

Hope you enjoy!

Love,
