If you love drinks like margaritas, then you’ve got to try my Cranberry Margarita recipe and my Classic Margarita recipe!

Why This Recipe Is So Good

Do you guys like margaritas as much as I do? (If you’re on this post, I’m guessing you do!) They are perfectly tart, not too sweet and always refreshing. With the warmer weather coming I decided it’s time to whip up some festive cocktails.

You can make this margarita frozen or on the rocks. I prefer on the rocks with a rim of sugar on my glass. This Mixed Berry Margarita is loaded with cherries, blueberries, and blackberries. It’s colorful, fruity, and delicious!

I love adding fruit to my cocktails. The sweet fruit and the tart lime make the perfect flavor combination. I had to use a mix of fresh and frozen fruit in my margarita because cherries aren’t in season yet.

Tequila, lime juice and simple syrup are also added. I make most of my drinks with simple syrup so I always make extra and store it away in the refrigerator. (Simple syrup is just equal parts sugar and water heated until dissolved.) You can also buy pre-made simple syrup at the liquor store.

Key Ingredients

• Mixed berries (I used blueberries, cherries, and blackberries, but any berries will work.)
• Simple syrup (homemade or store-bought)
• Fresh-squeezed lime juice
• Tequila
• Ice (for serving)
• Berries, lime wedges, and sugar (for garnish, if desired)

How To Make It

1. To make this mixed berry margarita recipe, start by muddling the berries and simple syrup together in your salt or sugar rimmed glass.
2. Top with lime juice and tequila. Stir to combine.
3. Top with ice and fresh berries for garnish, if desired.
4. If the seeds from the blackberries bother you simply strain through a sieve before serving.

To make this margarita frozen, substitute frozen berries and ice for a slushy treat.

Tips and Variations

• Make this a frozen margarita by using frozen fruit. Avoid using ice, as it will dilute your drink.
• Add any fruit you like — berries or not! Kiwis, melons, and pineapple would also be delicious additions to this cocktail.
• Double, triple, or quadruple this recipe to serve a crowd!

Serving Suggestions

• Homemade tortilla chips
• Healthy Greek yogurt guacamole
• Easy salsa verde
