Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen cherries
- 1.5 cups silver tequila
- 0.5 cups triple sec (or orange liqueur)
- 0.5 cups freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 4 pieces lime wedges (for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons coarse salt or sugar (for rim)
Instructions
Start by preparing the glasses. Take four cocktail glasses and rub the rim of each with a lime wedge. Dip the rims into a small plate of coarse salt or sugar to create a decorative rim. Set the glasses aside.
In a blender, combine the frozen cherries, silver tequila, triple sec, freshly squeezed lime juice, agave syrup, and ice cubes.
Blend the mixture on high speed until completely smooth and slushy. Stop the blender and scrape down the sides as needed to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the margarita mixture and adjust sweetness by adding a little more agave syrup if desired. Blend again for a few seconds to combine.
Pour the frozen cherry margarita into the prepared glasses, dividing evenly among the four servings.
Garnish each drink with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for a vibrant presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Frozen Cherry Margaritas!
