We know what to do when life gives us lemons. But when it throws us some strawberries, grab your blender and mix up a batch of this sublimely sweet and simple Strawberry Margarita! It requires only four ingredients and is perfect for Cinco De Mayo or a summer day.

For something a little more fruity than a classic margarita, this strawberry margarita is the perfect amount of sweet, boozy, and refreshing! It comes together in minutes and will be a recipe you’ll want to keep handy all summer long. For a brunch beverage, sip on these Mimosa Margaritas.

Strawberry Frozen Margarita Recipe

This crowd-pleasing cocktail comes together with just a few ingredients. My homemade Sweet and Sour Mix blends beautifully with the sweet strawberries while the kick of tequila doesn’t let you forget it’s a margarita. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • A batch of  Sweet and Sour Mix. It’s quick to whip up and can be used in dozens of delicious recipes.
  • Tequila! Good quality tequila is key to making a really great batch of margaritas.
  • Triple sec or orange liqueur, whichever you prefer This Blood Orange Margarita recipe is a good one too!
  • Frozen strawberries. If you have fresh berries on hand, by all means toss them in! Just add a few ice cubes for a frozen texture.

How to Make a Strawberry Margarita

For a great big pitcher of this margarita recipe (and trust me, you’ll want a big batch) mix your good quality tequila, a cup or so of the homemade Sweet and Sour Mix, a half cup of triple sec or orange liqueur and about half a dozen cups of frozen strawberries in a blender. Mix until smooth and serve in a sugar rimmed glass immediately. On the rocks or frozen, this refreshing margarita will be a summertime favorite long past Cinco de Mayo!

How to Serve

Since this drink is frozen, its best to serve immediately. The sugared rim provides a little extra sweetness with each sip and a fresh strawberry makes the perfect garnish and compliments the beautiful red hue of the cocktail.
