FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What liquor goes into Strawberry Margarita?

Tequila is the main liquor in margaritas.

Do I have to use salt on the rim for margaritas?

No, traditionally they have salt on the rim but you can also use coarse sugar or just omit the salt completely.

Can I make strawberry margarita mix ahead of time?

Absolutely yes, this is the perfect make ahead drink. Blend everything together and pour into a pitcher and place in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.

How do I make this into Frozen Strawberry Margaritas?

Easy peasy! What you will want to do is use frozen strawberries instead of fresh and then proceed with the remaining ingredients and then blend it up in your blender until smooth!

What mixes well with tequila?

Triple sec liqueur (like Cointreau) works beautifully with tequila. Triple sec has a slight orange flavor that pairs so well with tequila. Combine that with blended strawberries and agave syrup and you have the perfect margarita!

Can I use bottled lime juice?

I highly recommend using fresh. Especially since there are so few ingredients in the recipe that bottled lime juice really throws off the flavor and it ruins that fresh flavor we are going for.

Can I make other flavored margaritas with this recipe?

Of course! Some great flavor ideas would be pineapple, mango, watermelon, peach, raspberry and more. Just use your favorite fruit and go from there.

How do I store leftover margarita mix?

You can store the margarita mixture covered in the refrigerator where it will keep for up to 3 days.
