Method
Prep the Cucumber: Peel and chop the cucumber into chunks. This will make it easier to blend. If you want a stronger cucumber flavor, you can keep the skin on for extra color and nutrients.
Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the chopped cucumber, fresh lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, simple syrup, and ice. Blend until smooth. You want a slushy consistency, so don’t rush this step!
Taste and Adjust: Pour a small amount into a glass and taste it. If you prefer it sweeter, add more simple syrup. If you want it tangier, squeeze in more lime juice.
Prepare the Glasses: If desired, rim the serving glasses with salt or Tajín. To do this, rub a lime wedge around the rim, then dip it into a plate of salt or Tajín.
Serve: Pour the frozen margarita into the prepared glasses. Garnish with lime wedges or cucumber slices for that extra touch.
Enjoy! Sip and savor the refreshing taste of your Frozen Cucumber Margarita!
Variations
Spicy Cucumber Margarita: Add a slice or two of jalapeño to the blender for a spicy kick.
