A frozen margarita is a frosty twist on the classic on-the-rocks recipe blended with ice and lime zest.

The classic cocktail includes smooth blanco tequila, freshly squeezed lime juice, orange liqueur, and simple syrup.

Frozen, the flavors still shine.

Make Ahead Margaritas

Planning ahead?

Give them a stir to break up the ice a bit (I like to use a chopstick).

Drinks can stay in the freezer for up to one month.

After that the flavors start to become compromised.

When ready to serve, add the ice and your premade mixture.

Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.

Pour salt onto a plate that is slightly larger than your cocktail glass.

Take a piece of lime and generously rub it around the rim of your glass.

Dip the outside rim of your glass into the salt.

Repeat with other glass.

Pour frozen margaritas into glasses and serve.
