What You Will Need
- fresh & frozen strawberries – using a combination of fresh and frozen results in the perfect blended consistency.
- ice – always needed for some slushy thickness.
- lime juice – a must when making any type of margarita!
- tequila & grand marnier – option to omit if you would like a virgin strawberry margarita.
- simple syrup & orange juice – a little of each provides some added sweetness. Follow our simple tutorial on how to make simple syrup, instead of buying it at the grocery store.
- optional: sugar for the rim & lime wedges for serving.
How To Make Frozen Strawberry Margaritas
If you would like a sugar-rimmed glass you will want to start by rubbing a lime wedge around the rim. Then flip the glass and twist the rim in a plate of sugar until fully coated.
Then place all of the margarita ingredients in a blender. Blend on high until fully combined.
Now pour into the sugar-rimmed glass.
Best Ways To Serve Frozen Strawberry Margaritas
You can just pour them in your favorite glass and enjoy, but, personally, we love to run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, pour some sugar on a plate, and then place the glass rim in the sugar to fully coat. Once the glasses are prepared, you can pour in the margarita and garnish with a slice of lime or strawberry on top.
Prep Ahead of Time
That’s one of best parts of this recipe! Simply blend these up the night before serving and store them in the freezer until you are ready to serve. The alcohol won’t allow them to fully freeze so you can simply scoop them back in the blender and give them a quick blend to smooth out the texture before enjoying in a sugar rimmed glass!

Description
A refreshing and delicious Frozen Strawberry Margarita recipe that is perfect for enjoying all summer long!
Ingredients
- 2 cups ice
- 3 cup frozen strawberries
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/2 cup tequila
- 1/4 cup grand marnier
- 1/4 cup simple syrup (homemade or store-bought)
- 1/8 cup orange juice
- Garnish: sugar for rim and lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Sugar Rim: Take a glass and rub a lime wedge around the top. Pour some sugar on a small plate and place the rim of the glass in the sugar, ensuring it becomes fully coated. Repeat with remaining glasses. Set aside.
- Blender: Place ice, frozen strawberries, fresh strawberries, lime juice, tequila, grand marnier, simple syrup, and orange juice in a high powered blender. Blend on HIGH (or use the smoothie setting) until the texture is smooth. Taste and adjust any flavor, as necessary, (to thicken add more frozen strawberries, to thin add more fresh strawberries, to sweeten add more simple syrup, etc.). You can also add more tequila, if you prefer.
- Serve: Pour into glasses and garnish each glass with either a slice of lime or a fresh strawberry.
Notes
- Non-Alcoholic: to make this a virgin frozen strawberry margarita, simply omit the tequila and grand marnier. Add additional orange juice, simple syrup or even a bit of water to thin, if needed.
