One 10-ounce bag of frozen diced mango
2/3 cup of tequila – preferable silver, 80 proof

2 tablespoons superfine sugar
2 cups ice water

If you like a little kick in your margarita, this might be for you!
Ingredients:
½ cup fresh lime juice
½ cup white Blanco tequila
¼ cup orange liqueur – such as Grand Marnier
¼ cup simple syrup
4 thin slices of cucumber
1 jalapeno – halved lengthwise
Ice – for serving
Salt for glass rims (optional)
Directions:
Mix together the lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, simple syrup, cucumber and jalapenos in a large pitcher. Chill for at least 1 hour (the longer the margarita sits, the more the cucumber and jalapeno flavors infuse into the drink.) Serve over ice in salt-rimmed glasses, if desired.
This is the ultimate summer margarita.
Ingredients:
Salt or sugar for glass rims
1/3 cup orange-flavored liqueur – Cointreau is recommended
¼ cup Triple Sec
¾ cup tequila
4 ounces seedless watermelon – diced in small chunks
1 lime
Directions:
In a martini shaker shake together the orange-liqueur, Triple Sec, and tequila. Remove glasses from the freezer. Fill the bottom of each glass with the diced watermelon and pour alcohol mixture over the top, dividing evenly among glasses. Slice lime into wedges and squeeze into glasses.
Just picture sitting by the pool and sipping on a mint julep margarita.
Ingredients:
2 limes – each cut into 16 pieces

¼ cup seltzer
Directions:
Place the limes in a cocktail shaker. Sprinkle with the sugar and add the mint leaves. Muddle well, making sure the juice is really extracted from the limes and the sugar dissolves.
