    These slushy frozen Raspberry Margaritas have a touch of pineapple for added flavor. This summer drink is the perfect party cocktail. Who doesn't love frozen margaritas?

    a round of frozen margaritas is a great summer drink

    It has been REALLY HOT in NJ.

    I am not talking about your typical warm spring or early summer day. I mean sweaty, fry an egg on the sidewalk, over 90 degrees hot.

    We have our air conditioning blasting and there is no baking happening in this house but it is the perfect time for grilling and a backyard party.

    We fired up the grill the other night and I made these cool summer drinks the other night. They were perfect for the heat! I was in the mood for frozen margaritas and was happy to find a bottle of Cuervo in my liquor cabinet.

    I didn't have any margarita mix but that was all for the better as these raspberry margaritas are made with real juice and fruit. I happened to have a bag of frozen raspberries and thought I'd try a pineapple raspberry combination. It was delicious!

    I could have drank the whole pitcher myself but decided to share with the husband. He needs some antioxidants too, you know.  And since this recipe makes 4 servings, it's the perfect summer drink for a backyard party.

    How to Make Raspberry Margaritas

    This recipe comes together so quickly, no margarita mix required!

    1. Mix the water and sugar in a small cup until the sugar is dissolved.
    2. Pour the sugar water, raspberries, tequila, triple sec, and pineapple juice to a blender and blend until smooth.
    3. Add the ice cubes and blend to desired consistancy.
    4. Pour into 4 glasses that have been rimmed with salt or sugar and garnish with lime wedges.

    Tips for Making Margaritas

    • Keep Simple Syrup in Your Fridge - Combine 2 parts water and 1 part sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil for 1-2 minutes until the sugar is dissolved. Allow it to cool and store it in the fridge for easy drink recipes. For this recipe just add ½ cup of simple syrup in place of the water and sugar.
    • Chill The Glasses - Pop your serving glasses in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before serving for a perfectly chilled drink.
    • Rim The Glasses - Rimmed margarita glasses don't just look pretty, they add a burst of flavor to your drink. You can rim the glasses with salt or sugar but I like to wet them with lime juice rather than water.
    • Use Frozen Fruit - Use storebought frozen fruit or freeze fresh fruit overnight before adding to your drink. Frozen fruit will blend easier and make your drink nice and slushy. You can use frozen strawberries in this recipe as well!
    • Use Good Tequila - Good tequila doesn't have to be expensive but you want the best tequila you can afford.

      That drink looks great right about now. It was 90 degrees in RI today too! I haven't put the air on yet, I just feel like it's wrong in April.
      But a nice frozen drink, just seems oh so right! 🙂

      HI Lisa!
      It is great to meet your blog! It is amazing. I am excited to try some of your recipes and seek more inspiration for my food blog and recipes. Thank you so much. I am attempting to make banana cupcakes with caramel cream cheese frosting right now. I doubt they will be as wonderful as your strawberry cupcakes , but we shall see.

      Love the recipe but if you think Jersey is hot at 90, come out and visit Phoenix at 115. We bake cookies in our cars (I really have).

      Enjoy your cool double digits!
