Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Tequila (preferably blanco)
• 1 cup Triple Sec (or orange liqueur)
• 1 cup Fresh lime juice
• 0.75 cups Simple syrup
• 2 cups Water
• 0.25 cups Kosher salt (for rim, optional)
• 4 pieces Lime wedges (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl or pitcher, combine the tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and water. Stir well to combine.

Step 2

Pour the mixture into a sealable, freezer-safe container such as a plastic or glass jar. Leave some space at the top to allow for expansion as it freezes.

Step 3

Place the container in the freezer for at least 8 hours or overnight. The mixture won’t freeze solid due to the alcohol content but will develop a thick, slushy texture.

Step 4

When ready to serve, prepare your glasses (optional): Rub a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip the rims into a plate of kosher salt to coat.

Step 5

Scoop the freezer margarita mixture into the prepared glasses. If it’s too thick, let it sit at room temperature for a couple of minutes to soften slightly.

Step 6

Garnish with a lime wedge and serve immediately. Enjoy responsibly!
