If it’s hot outside you know you need a frozen drink…so why not make Frozen Strawberry Coconut Margaritas?? 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 strawberry and regular tequila and it was good.

Then I saw my 1800 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! The 1800 Coconut Tequila is a total game-changer and has so much coconut flavor it’s perfect for margaritas! Here’s how to make the margarita and the strawberry syrup.

Servings 2 margaritas

Ingredients

• 4 oz 1800 Coconut Tequila

Instructions

Notes

• 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!

Course Dessert, Drinks

Keyword diy syrup, homemade syrup, strawberry syrup

Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries (fresh is always best)
• 1½-2 cups sugar (my strawberries were really sweet so I used a little over a cup)
• 2 cups water

Instructions

• Add all of the ingredients to a saucepan on med heat, bring to a boil stirring constantly and squashing the berries to release the juices. Once boiling, stir for another 30 seconds.
• Remove from the heat and allow the mixture to cool completely. Place in jar or bottle with lid and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

If you don’t want strawberry bits in your syrup, make sure you smash the berries as much as possible before during and after cooking and cooling. Strain through a fine mesh seive and store in a sealble container in the fridge. Don’t throw those berry pieces away! They are delicious and sweet and can be used for so many things or just a quick treat!
