I know you’re probably going to just start scrolling down if I don’t get to the actual recipe here pretty quick, so without any further adieu we’ll jump right into dissecting and understanding the perfect Strawberry Margarita Recipe.
Prep Work for the Perfect Strawberry Margarita Recipe
You will get best results if you use Margaritaville Blender. However if you don`t have one you can just prepare strawberry margarita by yourself. Before you can actually begin making these lovely beverages you need to get your hands on the ingredients, which means we need to make a shopping list.
Pretty simple first step, right? So far so good?
None of the ingredients should be too difficult to track down; your local super market should have everything in stock, probably with multiple brands and choices. Read below to see a compiled list of ingredients you will need for this strawberry margarita recipe:
- One Package of Frozen Strawberries (10 ounces)
- One Can Frozen Pink Lemonade Concentrate (6 ounces)
- One Cup of Tequila or more
- ¼ Cup Triple Sec
- Lots of Ice Cubes to Taste
Now that you have everything you need, you’ll need to dust off that old blender of yours and start cooking! Or, I guess it would be mixing, wouldn’t it? Either way.
Executing an Exquisite Strawberry Margarita Recipe
For every drink you mix there is a certain process that will work better than any other. Obviously it is not set in stone, but at times adding a certain ingredient before another one can change the final outcome in a way that’s less than desirable.
Below I have outlined some simple steps to follow that seem to work for me. Feel free to experiment as much as you want until you make your own perfect strawberry margarita! You could even come up with your own strawberry margarita recipe after a few tries making drinks with this one, depending if you thought they were tasty or not.
But I digress, the order to follow is:
- Put in Strawberries First
- Pour in Pink Lemonade Concentrate on Top of that
- Blend Until Liquid
- Add Your Cup (or more) of Tequila
- Add Your Quarter Cup of Triple Sec
- Blend Some More
- Add Ice Cubes To Taste
- Blend Even More
- Pour, Drink and Enjoy!'
- Rinse and Repeat, The Night is Young!
Depending on how many people you will be having over you can change the ingredients to suit your needs. The strawberry margarita recipe that I’ve outlined above will serve four people, and when it’s done tastes like a smoothie.
It probably won’t need to be sweeter, but you can use this as a reference to increase or decrease the ingredients depending on your preference for taste and volume.
Parting Advice on Mixing Strawberry Margaritas
Many people have different versions of the recipe, this is just my personal favorite. I have seen and tasted so many different versions of this delicious drink that all I can say is to explore and find the recipe that works best for you.
For instance some people like to use fresh strawberry halves instead of frozen ones, or I’ve seen people use frozen raspberry limeade instead of pink lemonade, or even make their own lemonade all together. A common addition to the recipe here is just a dash of lime juice for a little extra bite.
As I said, ultimately it is up to you and your taste buds on how exactly you brew your strawberry margaritas, but one thing is for sure – Everybody will love you for experimenting.
Next time you’re in charge of drinks for a holiday or event, go ahead and make it exotic with this tasty strawberry margarita recipe! It’s perfect for ladies’ nights, birthday parties or even just a casual gathering with your friends and family. Really, pretty much everyone loves a good strawberry margarita, so don’t be shy!
Having said that, I’ll leave you to it with a clink, a cheers and a goodnight.
