This strawberry margarita is the perfect drink to cool you off in the summer. I’m curious – do you prefer your margaritas frozen or on the rocks? And what’s your favorite type of tequila? Tip: if using fresh strawberries, you may want to use 3-4 cups of ice. Don’t pick something that needs to be mixed in order to taste tolerable, because that’s not going to enhance this drink! My rule of thumb is to pick a tequila that you can drink straight – that is going to give you the best taste. Give it a little taste and if it’s not quite sweet enough for your liking, add in a little more sweetener. Gold tequila is probably what you would refer to as the “cheap stuff” – while reposado is aged tequila and apparently gets smoother as you increase in vintage. Place the strawberries, tequila, lime juice, triple sec and agave syrup in a blender and blend until smooth. ![]() On either side of that, you have two versions of “yellow” tequila – gold tequila or reposado. I’d start with 3-4 tablespoons of honey, sugar or other sweetener, then taste. But if you like a margarita on the sweeter side, feel free to add your favorite sweetener. Personally, I can only handle silver tequila which features the blue agave in it’s purest form. Sweetener Strawberries are naturally sweet so I don’t think sugar is required in this recipe.

Sweet strawberries, tart lime juice, and salt – so your tongue doesn’t focus too much on the sharpness of the tequila. You have all these delicious flavors intermingling and working together. I also find that the taste of tequila is a little smoother in these frozen margaritas – especially with that salted rim. I think both are perfectly delicious and acceptable, but this frozen version is definitely more fun for celebrating and is perfect for cooling off your tongue after some spicy dishes, like this Chicken Enchilada Dip or these Spicy Fish Tacos. The ever-growing divide between margarita lovers remains: frozen or on the rocks? We also love a margarita on the rocks, they both scream summer!
