How to make Pitcher Frozen Margarita, simple Recipe
A classic margarita can be enjoyed any day of the year, but on those hot and sticky summer days, a frozen twist on the bright, tart cocktail is most welcome. There are some drinks that you just wouldn’t want to turn into a frozen drink. Frozen Martini? No thanks. But some cocktails translate wonderfully from on the rocks, into an icy, blended drink. A Frozen Margarita may not be novel, but with solid ingredients, it can be your delicious, go-to summer drink. And sure, it requires you take out your blender, but at least you can blend up a bunch to have on hand when the fancy strikes.
