How to mix it?

  • Combine the tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and simple syrup. Add the mixture and ice to a blender, and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.

On this occasion, we bring you a Frozen Limeade Margarita, a refreshing cocktail with a citrusy and tangy twist that sets it apart from other tequila drinks.

For this recipe, we’ll use lime juice instead of lemon, as it is more acidic and less sweet, giving it a unique and bold flavour. You can either make the limeade yourself or buy it ready-made.

Ingredients to Prepare Frozen Lime Margarita Recipe

To prepare this Frozen Margarita recipe with frozen limeade, you will only need:

  • 1 oz tequila
  • ½ oz triple sec
  • ½ oz simple syrup
  • 5 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 cups ice

You can either make your own lime juice or buy it ready-made. If you prefer to make it at home, mix 4 peeled limes, four ice cubes, and a tablespoon of sugar. Blend everything together until smooth, and your limeade will be ready. If you don’t want to blend it because you don’t have the tools, you can simply mix the lime with 3 cups of water.

In some recipes, ginger is even added to give the lime juice a special twist. It’s a matter of personal preference.

On the other hand, if you want to buy it ready-made, we recommend using Minute Maid Limeade to prepare this Frozen Lime Margarita.

How to Make the Recipe for Frozen Lime Juice Margarita

To prepare the Frozen Limeade Margarita:

  1. Combine the tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and simple syrup.
  2. Add the mixture and ice to a blender, and blend until smooth.
  3. Serve immediately.

For best results, freeze for at least 8 hours, but we recommend leaving it for even longer, if possible, so the drink can fully absorb all the flavours.

Olmeca Altos: Which Tequila to Choose?

For this Frozen Lime Margarita recipe, we recommend using a white tequila. In the end, the lime flavour is very strong, so we need a robust drink to ensure the mixture doesn’t taste like just lime juice. That’s why we’ll opt for the tequila with the highest alcohol content possible, just like we did with the Lemon Margarita.

And what better tequila than our Altos Plata? A premium tequila made in Jalisco, Mexico, from 100% blue agave. Since we know that a tequila cocktail is a moment away from our busy lives, let’s make the most of it and choose quality.

Your Questions Answered Frozen Limeade Margarita: The Refreshing Recipe

Can I use Altos in cocktails other than Margaritas?

Oh, definitely. Altos levels up everything from Palomas to Tequila Sunrises — even an Old Fashioned if you’re feeling creative. If it’s got a glass, Altos belongs in it.

What’s the difference between Plata, Reposado, and Añejo?

Plata’s fresh and vibrant, Reposado’s smooth with a touch of oak, and Añejo’s rich, deep, and full of character. Three tequilas, three moods — all pure Altos.

Is Altos Tequila made sustainably?

Yep — we’re big on doing things the right way. From recycling agave fibres to reusing water at the distillery, Altos keeps it clean and green. Great tequila, made with a conscience.

What’s the best way to drink Altos Tequila?

However you like it. It’s a knockout in a Margarita or Paloma, but just as good neat if you want to taste that craftsmanship. Whatever the occasion, Altos always brings the good vibes.

What makes Altos Tequila different from other tequilas?

Altos isn’t just another tequila — it’s the real deal. Made from 100% Blue Agave grown high in Jalisco, slow-cooked, copper-distilled, and crafted by bartenders who know their stuff. The result? A tequila that’s smooth, bold, and built for mixing.
