How to Make a Frozen Virgin Margarita

A frozen virgin margarita can have the same lime flavor as a regular margarita.

A frozen virgin margarita is a refreshing beverage that's easy to prepare. Frozen virgin margaritas mimic the flavor of a regular margarita by substituting some of the ingredients and leaving the alcohol out.

Things You'll Need

• Shallow bowl
• Kosher salt
• 4 margarita glasses
• Lime wedges
• Blender
• 6 ounces thawed frozen limeade concentrate
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 4 cups ice cubes

Instructions

1. Fill the bottom of a shallow dish with kosher salt. Wet the rim of each of the four margarita glasses with a lime wedge. Dip the dampened rims into the bowl of kosher salt, then set the glasses aside.

2. Pour the thawed limeade concentrate into the blender. Add 1/2 cup orange juice, followed by 4 cups of ice cubes.

3. 

   Blend your frozen virgin margarita in a blender.

   Place the top tightly on the blender and blend the ingredients for one to two minutes, or until the ice cubes are finely crushed.

4. Pour the frozen virgin margarita into the four glasses and serve.

Tips & Warnings

• Substitute lime juice for orange juice and add 12 ounces of non-alcoholic beer for a different twist on your virgin margarita.

• Add grapefruit juice along with the orange juice for a more sour taste.
