If you’ve got a high performance Vitamix or Blendtec blender, and been on a health kick with green smoothies, soups, and other good-for-you meals.
Using all natural ingredients, no syrups, pure fruit, and top shelf liquor, this is definitely pure decadence.
It’s how I imagine the first margarita’s were ever made. Where have you been all my life!

Bonus
If you’re like me, you may not have an orange lying around when you’re in the mood to make this frozen margarita recipe. I tried the above recipe by replacing the orange with 4 Cuties, also known as Halo’s, or mandarin oranges. It was actually a bit better than my original recipe! So if you’re missing the exact fruit, feel free to improvise. The secret is pure fruit is so natural, I think it lets you add a bit of creativity.
