Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups watermelon, cubed and frozen
- 1 cup strawberries, frozen
- 1/2 cup tequila
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Ensure that the watermelon is cut into cubes and frozen ahead of time. You can freeze the watermelon by placing the cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer and transferring them to the freezer for a few hours until solid.
- In a blender, combine the frozen watermelon cubes and frozen strawberries. This will create a refreshing base for your margarita.
- Add the tequila to the blender. Choose a good quality tequila for the best flavor, preferably 100% agave.
- Pour in the freshly squeezed lime juice. For optimal taste, use fresh limes rather than bottled juice.
- Drizzle in the agave syrup. This will add a touch of sweetness to balance the tartness of the lime juice and the natural sweetness of the fruits.
- If you prefer a slushier texture, you can add a handful of ice cubes to the blender. This is optional, as the frozen fruits already provide a chilled consistency.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth and slushy consistency. You may need to stop the blender and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well combined.
- Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more agave syrup or lime juice to suit your preference.
- Once blended to your desired consistency, pour the watermelon strawberry margarita into chilled glasses.
- Garnish each glass with a slice of lime or a fresh strawberry, if desired, for an appealing presentation.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Watermelon Strawberry Margarita Frozen!
Tips
- Freezing Fruit Matters: For the ultimate smooth texture, freeze your watermelon and strawberries in advance. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet to prevent them from clumping together.
- Choose Quality Tequila: Always opt for a 100% agave tequila to ensure the best flavor profile in your cocktail.
- Fresh is Best: Use freshly squeezed lime juice instead of bottled for a brighter, more vibrant taste.
- Sweetness Balance: Start with the recommended amount of agave syrup and adjust to your taste. Everyone's sweet tooth is different!
- Blending Technique: Blend in short pulses first to break down the frozen fruit, then blend continuously until smooth. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
- Serving Suggestion: Chill your glasses beforehand for an extra refreshing experience. You can even rim the glasses with salt or sugar for added flair.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the fruit mixture in advance and store it in the freezer, making party prep a breeze!
