Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups frozen cherries
- 1.5 oz tequila
- 0.75 oz fresh lime juice
- 0.5 oz orange liqueur (like Cointreau or Triple Sec)
- 0.25 oz simple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
- Ice (optional, for a thicker consistency)
- Garnish: lime wheel, cherry, salt rim (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare your glass: If you like a salted rim, rub a lime wedge around the rim of your glass and dip it in coarse salt.
- Combine ingredients: In a blender, add the frozen cherries, tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and simple syrup (if using).
- Blend: Blend until smooth and slushy. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of water or more lime juice. If it’s too thin, add a few ice cubes and blend again.
- Serve: Pour the margarita into your prepared glass.
- Garnish: Add a lime wheel or a cherry for garnish. Enjoy immediately!
Notes
- For a non-alcoholic version, omit the tequila and orange liqueur. Add a little more cherry juice or a splash of grenadine for sweetness and color.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup, or by using sweeter cherries.
- Experiment with different types of tequila for a unique flavor profile.
