The best frozen strawberry margaritas recipe made easy with frozen strawberries and limeade!
STRAWBERRY MARGARITA INGREDIENTS
- Tequila
- Orange Liqueur
- Frozen Concentrated Limeade
- Frozen Strawberries
- Fresh Lime Juice (Optional)
- Ice
ABOUT THE TEQUILA
You can use top-shelf or bottom-shelf tequila for your margaritas, but silver tequila will be best suited for these Frozen Strawberry Margaritas. If you prefer a higher-end tequila, Herradura Silver tequila is great.
THE ORANGE LIQUEUR
Grand Marnier and Cointreau are both great orange liqueurs, but they can be pricey. Feel free to substitute in triple sec if needed for a more budget-friendly margarita.
FROZEN LIME JUICE AND FROZEN STRAWBERRIES
No margarita mix necessary for this Frozen Strawberry Margarita recipe. In addition to the alcohol, you'll need frozen lime concentrate (found in the freezer section of your grocery store -- usually near the frozen fruit).
Frozen strawberries are important for this cocktail, as they make for a thick and frosty frozen strawberry margarita. If you were to use regular strawberries, your frozen margarita would be watery.
DON'T FORGET THE ICE!
For an extra thick and frosty Frozen Strawberry Margarita, don't forget the ice.

HOW TO MAKE FROZEN STRAWBERRY MARGARITAS FROM SCRATCH
- Add in ingredients to the blender.
- Blend.
See how easy that was? You do not have to be a mixologist to make a stellar of Frozen Strawberry Margaritas at home. Just a few ingredients and a blender.
Note, the order in which you add the ingredients to the blender will make a difference, so be sure to add them as indicated in the recipe card.
Once you've got all of your ingredients together, you simply throw all of the ingredients in a blender and start mixing on low speed. This gives your blender time to start breaking down the strawberries without stalling out.
Once the strawberries are fairly broken up, you can crank up the speed and let it go until it is perfectly smooth.

NO FANCY BLENDER? NO PROBLEM.
You do not need a high tech blender to make a stellar batch of Frozen Strawberry Margaritas. Speaking from personal experience. I was seriously bummed when I forgot our Vitamix at home on our last beach vacation (and no, I do not travel light), but was pleasantly surprised to find that we really didn't even need it at all.
The rinky-dink blender our beach rental had stowed away in the cabinets did a fine job, and the Frozen Strawberry Margaritas at the beach tasted just as good as the ones I make at home.
