Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fresh lime juice preferably freshly squeezed
  • 0.5 cup tequila silver or blanco preferred
  • 1 cup simple syrup adjust sweetness to taste
  • 3 cups ice cubes preferably crushed or small pieces

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cup

Method
 

  1. Add the fresh lime juice, tequila, and simple syrup into the blender.
  2. Then, add the ice cubes to the blender with the liquid mixture.
  3. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed for about 30-45 seconds, until the mixture appears thick, frosty, and snow-like in texture.
  4. Pause briefly to check the texture; if it’s too thick, you can add a splash of water or more lime juice and blend again.
  5. Once the mixture is smooth and icy, turn off the blender and give it a quick stir to ensure even consistency.
  6. Pour the frosty margarita slushie into chilled glasses.

Notes

For an extra touch, rim the glasses with salt before pouring. Enjoy immediately while icy and cold!
