Drink Skinny Frozen Raspberry Margarita…Mmmm

Posted on: September 13th, 2011 by Christy No Comments

I’m usually not one for recipes requiring more than a minimal amount of effort (save work for the work day, is the way I look at it.) But the few extra minutes spent on this cocktail recipe will be worth it. I promise. We used frozen organic raspberries, made our own puree, and even strained the seeds (if you knew us, this would amaze and astound you) and it really made for a delicious treat.  

Drink Skinny Raspberry Margarita

1.5 oz silver tequila (we recommend Camarena)

2 oz Drink Skinny (original ) Margarita Mix

1 small bag frozen raspberries

1 lime

ice

 

1) Puree raspberries in a blender & strain them to remove seeds. 2) Measure out 2 oz (1/4 cup) of strained raspberry puree & pour it back into the blender (store the rest of the puree in the fridge for up to 5 days.) 3) Add Drink Skinny, tequila, & ice and blend until consistency is smooth. 4) Pour mixture into a margarita glass. 5) Slice the lime & add the juice from 1/4 of the lime to the cocktail, and garnish w/another 1/4 of the lime.
