Refreshing Frozen Cherry Margarita
A cool and zesty frozen treat that brings a sweet cherry twist to your favorite classic cocktail.
dailyrecipesbook.comThere is nothing quite like a cold margarita on a hot summer day. This cherry version is a fun change from the usual lime drinks and the bright red color always looks beautiful in a glass.
It is so easy to whip these up when guests drop by unexpectedly. Just make sure your cherries are frozen solid before you start, because that is the secret to getting that perfect slushy texture.
