Frozen Cherry Limeade Margarita Recipe

Frozen Cherry Limeade Margarita

I love Homemade Limeade for an alcohol-free way to cool off, but you can’t beat this frozen concoction when it’s just the adults by the pool.(Did you pick up on that Jimmy Buffett reference?) As a kid, my very favorite drink in the world was a cherry limeade from Sonic. That flavor always reminds me of summertime, no matter what time of year it is. I finally made my own Homemade Cherry Limeade recipe (there’s a regular version and a cocktail version), but that just wasn’t enough. I had to take it up a notch and create this amazing Cherry Limeade Margarita recipe for the ultimate summer happy hour. And better yet, it’s a FROZEN cherry limeade margarita, because icy drinks are a necessity on pool days. I’ve made a lot of drinks (and specifically, a lot of margaritas) on my blog, but these are some of the tastiest and easiest. They’re tart and sweet at the same time– a cherry-flavored drink to cherish.

How to Make Frozen Cherry Limeade Margaritas

What’s Tart Cherry Juice?

Tart cherries aren’t what you see in the produce section of your local grocery store. Farmers used to call them sour cherries because they are, well, sour. It turns out that tart cherries are something of a superfood with their antioxidant properties, so you could maybe even push the idea and call these margaritas a healthy tonic. Or not! If you can’t find tart cherry juice, you can use grenadine syrup instead.

What’s the Best Consistency for a Frozen Margarita?

There are two schools of thoughts on frozen margaritas. Some folks like them with crunchy with chunks of ice mixed throughout, while others like them smooth and slushy. As long as you’re the person running the blender, you can make the call!
