EASY FROZEN MARGARITAS



Easy Frozen Margaritas image

Authentic margaritas call for lots of fresh lime juice - both expensive and time-consuming. I've found I can shortcut the process by using frozen limeade. And for a festive non-alcoholic drink, combine a 12-ounce can of limeade (thawed) with a 48-ounce bottle of sparkling water.

2 quarts ice cubes
1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate
12 fluid ounces tequila (measure with empty limeade can)
ΒΌ cup Cointreau
margarita or kosher salt for the rims
lime slices cut in half

Steps:

  • Working in 2 batches, place 1 quart ice cubes in a blender. Add 1/2 can limeade, 6 ounces tequila and 2 tablespoons Cointreau. Blend at highest speed until drink is almost smooth. Pour into a pitcher and repeat with remaining ingredients. Store in the freezer.
  • To salt the margarita glasses, pour a single layer of salt on a salad plate. Moisten each glass rim with lime; dip each rim in the salt. Pour margaritas into each glass; garnish with lime. Serve immediately.

Categories     Cocktails

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

margarita salt or coarse sea salt, for rimming glasses
1 lime wedge, for rimming glasses
1/2 c frozen orange juice concentrate
1 1/2 c orange juice
3/4 c tequila (6 ounces)
2 Tbsp cointreau or triple sec (1 ounce)
2 Tbsp lime juice
3 c crushed ice
1/4 c grenadine
4 slice orange, for garnish
4 maraschino cherries, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Spread a layer of salt in a shallow dish. Run lime wedge around the rims of 4 highball glasses to moisten; dip rims in salt.
  • 2. Place orange juice concentrate, orange juice, tequila, Cointreau, and lime juice in a blender. Add ice and pulse until smooth. Divide margarita evenly among glasses.
  • 3. Tilt glasses and pour 1 tablespoon grenadine down the side of each drink; grenadine will sink to the bottom and create a sunset effect. Garnish with orange slices and maraschino cherries and serve.
  • 4. Bartender's Note: The straight sides of highball glasses are ideal for achieving the sunrise effect. Traditional margarita glasses won't work if you want this look.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tequila: The quality of the tequila you use will greatly impact the taste of your margarita. Opt for a 100% blue agave tequila that is smooth and flavorful.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice will give your margarita a bright, citrusy flavor. Avoid using bottled lime juice, as it can be bitter and artificial-tasting.
  • Don't skimp on the salt: The salt rim is a classic margarita garnish that adds a nice contrast to the sweetness of the drink. Make sure to use coarse salt, as it will stick to the rim better than fine salt.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients will help to create a refreshing and flavorful margarita. Be sure to chill your tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and glasses before making your margaritas.
  • Experiment with different flavors: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making margaritas. Try adding different fruits, herbs, or spices to create your own unique flavor combinations.

Conclusion:

The frozen sunrise margarita is a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its vibrant colors and tropical flavors, this margarita is sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy cocktail to make, give the frozen sunrise margarita a try.
