Frozen Margarita Slushy

Is there anything better than a classic margarita? A Frozen Margarita Slushy of course!

Unlike most frozen margaritas, this tangy cocktail omits all of the artificial sweeteners, using only the freshest of ingredients. The perfect way to quench your thirst on a hot Summer’s day!

FROZEN MARGARITA SLUSHY

To be completely honest, I’m not a fan of tequila – on its own that is. I am a fan of the ritual of tequila shots, sucking on lemon wedges and licking salt. Unfortunately, I never believed in just one shot. Or two. Ah, the memories.

Tequila will convince you that you’re JLO, dancing on a podium in a packed club, only to find out you looked more like Elaine from Seinfeld. If you’ve seen Seinfeld, you know exactly what I’m talking about…

Behind tequila shots, my next favourite drink is a margarita. Somehow, transforming it into a slushy makes it even better – especially in Summer!

Colder and more refreshing than a regular marg, this cocktail goes down dangerously easy! Our saving Grace? A frozen margarita slushy takes longer to drink than a classic margarita in liquid form. That means more time to enjoy the tart, boozy flavours and the rough, salty rim.

There’s a certain elegance to these frozen margarita slushies. Blended and poured into a tall cocktail glass and garnished with a fresh slice of lime. Aesthetic and delicious.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH A FROZEN MARGARITA SLUSHY
