Okay, so I’ve been seeing these gorgeous frozen strawberry margaritas all over my feed, and I had to try making a non-alcoholic version. I mean, who doesn’t love a good mocktail, especially when it looks this fancy?
Getting Started
First things first, I gathered my ingredients. This is what I used:
- Frozen strawberries (obviously!) – I used about a big handful, maybe 2 cups?
- Lime juice – I squeezed two whole limes, because I like it tangy.
- Some agave nectar – just a squirt, to taste. You could use honey or simple syrup too.
- Sparkling water – to give it that fizzy, margarita-like feel.
- Ice – because, well, it’s frozen.
- Optional: a little lime zest and some extra strawberries for garnish.
The Mixing Process
I threw the frozen strawberries, lime juice, and agave into my blender. I added a splash of the sparkling water, just to get things moving. Then, I blended everything until it was super smooth. It took a couple of minutes, and I had to stop and scrape down the sides a few times.
Next, I added a bunch of ice. I like my drinks really icy, so I probably used a good two cups or so. I blended again, until it was all slushy and perfect. If it’s too thick, you can add a bit more sparkling water. If it’s too thin, add more ice or frozen strawberries. It’s all about finding that perfect consistency, you know?
I did taste it and added a little bit more agave.
The Final Touch
I grabbed a pretty glass (because presentation matters!), and poured in my beautiful pink mocktail. To make it extra fancy, I zested a little lime over the top and added a sliced strawberry to the rim. It looked (and tasted) amazing!
Honestly, this was so easy and so refreshing. It’s the perfect drink for a hot day, a party, or just a relaxing evening at home. I’m definitely going to be making this again… and again… and again!
