Which tequila is best for margaritas?

Silver (or white) tequila is best for margaritas because it has a very clean, sharp flavor with a silky smooth finish. This allows the berries in the recipe to be the star of the show. Although aged tequila can also be used, they will add a variety of smokiness, sweetness and spice to the mix.

Tips for success

Take any frozen margarita to the next level with a sweet Miguelito rim and some spicy Mexican chamoy in the mix.

• Swap rims. If you're not into sugar rims, use Miguelito (sweet Mexican chili powder), tajine, or salt instead.
• Make them productive. Swap out half of the berries for sliced ​​mango, peach or pineapple for a more natural sweetness.
• Add heat. Blend 1-2 tablespoons of chili sauce or 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder into the margarita mix for a little heat.
• Make mocktails. Skip the tequila and Grand Marnier to make a family-friendly alcohol-free slushie-like mocktail.
• Add the garnish. Sliced ​​limes, lemons, strawberries and oranges make great fruit garnishes for your cocktails.
• Cool the glasses. Keep your margaritas colder longer by popping cocktail glasses in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before you serve your drink.

Can you make frozen margaritas in advance?

You can make the frozen margaritas up to 2 hours ahead and refrigerate the mixture in a pitcher. If you want to make them further ahead, mix all the ingredients as usual except the ice. Blend it before serving for a super icy drink.
