Ingredients
- A small pile of flaked salt on a plate
- 2 oz of tequila
- 1 oz of Cointreau
- 1 oz of lime juice
- ½ oz of sugar syrup
- 200 g of ice blocks
- Lime wedges for garnish
Instructions
-
Rub the citrus of the lemon wedge around the rim of your glass. Then dip the wet rim of your glass into the pile flaked salt. Set aside.
-
Put your tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, sugar syrup and ice blocks in a blender. Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes.
-
Transfer the margarita into your salt garnished glass (be careful not to ruin the salt garnish).
-
Finish the drink with your lime wedge and serve.
Recipe Notes
- Don't forget to actually measure the ice, because the amount of ice you add is important.
- Feel free to add frozen fruit, to give a fruity flavour to your cocktail. Replace half of the ice with your fruit.
- Feel free to add any other type of orange liqueur. You could use triple sec or Grand Marnier.
- If you do add fruit, taste test the cocktail first before you add sugar syrup as the fruit itself may already be sweet enough.
- If you want to make a virgin frozen margarita, replace the tequila with soda water, and the liqueur with fresh orange juice. Again, taste test the mocktail before you add any sugar syrup.
