| Icy cold and refreshing, frozen margaritas are a favorite cocktail on a hot summer day. They are great for a party because you can blend them by the pitcherful, ready to pour as your guests arrive. | |
| 2 fl. oz. | white tequila |
| 2 Tbs. | triple sec |
| 2 Tbs. | fresh lime juice |
| 1 tsp. | simple syrup, (see related recipe at left) |
| 1 cup | ice cubes |
| Simple Syrup: | |
| 1 c. | water |
| 1 c. | sugar |
Directions:
Pour the tequila, triple sec, lime juice and simple syrup into a blender containing the ice cubes. Blend well. Pour into a chilled margarita glass or wineglass.
Serves 1.
For the Simple Syrup:
Because it is difficult to dissolve sugar in cold liquid, bartenders use a sugar solution called simple syrup. It is easy to prepare and keeps 2 months or longer in the refrigerator.
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the water to a simmer. Add the sugar and stir until it completely dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool to room temperature. Pour the syrup into a clean 1-pint bottle, cap it and refrigerate until ready to use. Makes 1 1?2 cups.
