The Best Vitamix Frozen Strawberry Margarita

My obsession with margaritas started about 10 years ago when my friend Rick first made them for me at the beach in the freshest way possible: freshly squeezed lime juice, simple syrup and tequila.

I never knew a margarita could taste so crisp and refreshing.

Up until that point I had only tried them loaded with artificial flavors, sugar, triple sec and margarita mix. They never agreed with me until I tasted them in their purest form (the recipe is below!).

I’m not much of a drinker these days, but when needed, I can whip up a batch of these babies. Everyone always wants to know how they taste so much better than the ones you get in the pool bar on vacation!

It’s good to be margarita queen. 😉

I’ve explored all the frozen fruit possibilities and combinations, and I’ve substituted the simple syrup with maple syrup.

This frozen strawberry recipe is always the most popular with friends. Like Rick’s margs, the ingredients are simple and nothing extra is added. That’s probably why it tastes so good!

Ingredients:

• 1 10 oz bag of frozen strawberries
• 2 shots fresh lime juice
• 2 shots maple syrup
• 4 shots tequila
• 10 ice cubes (the more ice, the thicker it will be)
• Salt
• Lime wedges
• Vitamix or other high speed blender

How to make vitamix strawberry margaritas:

1) Prep your glasses by running a lime wedge around the rim of the glass. Pour salt on a flat dish, and turn the glass upside down and roll the rim around in the salt. The salt will stick wherever there is lime juice.(You really can’t do this once the margarita is poured!)

2) Put all ingredients in the blender. Let it run until all ice and frozen strawberries are completely smooth.

3) Pour margarita mixture into glasses. Serve with a lime wedge garnish.

This makes about 3-4 drinks.
