Ingredient Notes
Strawberries: Fresh or frozen berries work great.
Tequila: Look for tequila that is labeled 100% agave. My favorite brand is Patron. The more expensive brands are lower in alcohol content, so you can use them if you want to add less alcohol to the beverage. A more expensive tequila will also reduce the morning after headache that some people experience after drinking.
Triple Sec: This orange flavor liquor is optional but highly encouraged. Grand Marnier could also be used. If you don't want extra alcohol you could substitute orange juice.
Lime Juice: Use freshly squeezed for the best flavor.
Pro Bartender Tips
This drink can be as thick or thin as you'd like. Add more ice for a thicker slushier drink.
This can be made ahead and stored in the freezer to enjoy whenever you'd like. Alcohol will not freeze completely leading to on-demand adult slushies.
If you don't like salt on your margarita use sugar for a sweet twist.
