Last weekend, my hubby and I made these drinks after dinner. Since we LOVE having a whole fruit margarita (check out our original version and strawberry version), we wanted to change it up a bit. We had some fresh raspberries on hand and decided to make a raspberry margarita! YUM!!! The flavor was amazing and using the fresh raspberries made it taste much more natural then using a mixer. Whether you want to make a yummy cocktail one evening for friends/family, or make this to go along with a yummy grilled dinner this summer, this is simple and bound to be a hit!!

How ‘bout using Agave instead of Triple Sec ? And I would lose the sugar since I don’t like overly sweet Margaritas. I’ve been wondering about putting the whole peeled lime in the blender, rather than JUST the lime juice. The pulp blends up sufficiently ? And how many Margarita’s do you get out of this recipe ? But recipe sounds great and will be tried to celebrate July 4th weekend !

Great idea on the Agave! As long as you have a good blender, I definitely think adding the whole lime in there would be great! Sometimes, under powered blenders can leave chunks, so make sure that doesn’t happen!
Each batch makes 2 margaritas, sorry I didn’t mention that! Hope you enjoy this recipe and happy 4th!
