Strawberry Coconut Lime Frozen Margaritas

If it's hot outside you know you need a frozen drink...so why not make a Frozen Strawberry Coconut Lime Margarita?? This refreshing and delicious drink is quick and easy and just what you need by the pool or at a party.

It was sooo HOT in Portland and I needed a cold drink ASAP! Luckily I had just made strawberry syrup from the strawberries we picked so I knew I was making a margarita. First I tried regular tequila and it was good. Then I saw my Coconut Tequila and knew I was on to something! Who doesn't like Strawberry, Coconut and Lime together?? I wasn't completely sure if it would work but I had to try it. And guess what??? It was AMAZING! Here's how to make the margarita and the strawberry syrup.

Tips and Tricks

-The first batch I over blended, they were still good, but became warm at the end (it was really hot out!). So the second batch I pulsed more than blended and they were perfect!

- Fresh Strawberry syrup is yummy and adds all the sweetness you need. If you don't have any, just add fresh strawberries and some agave syrup. You could also add a tablespoon of strawberry jelly with your fresh strawberries and you will still have an awesome margarita!

-This recipe makes a little more than the glass I had (no problem, I love leftovers) or you could add a little more tequila and make it for two!

Strawberry Syrup Ingredients

2 Cups fresh or frozen strawberries

1 ½- 2 cups sugar (my strawberries were really sweet so I only used a little over a cup)
