I’m not going to lie. I’m a bit of a margarita wimp. I prefer my margaritas as fruity as possible. I do have a Grilled Margarita recipe, but my other margarita recipes have pomegranates and blood oranges in them. Yum.
Anywho, I came across this recipe for Blackberry Orange Margaritas in Cooking Light and knew I’d like this one! The original recipe adds spicy serrano tequila, but I decided to keep this one spice-free.
Ingredients:
- 6 ounces tequila
- 12 ounces fresh blackberries
- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar
Add the blackberries, 1 cup orange juice. 1/2 cup lime juice, and 2 tablespoons agave to a blender and process until smooth.
Strain through a sieve, discarding the solids. Use a spoon to press down on the sieve to strain the liquid.
Stir in the tequila. Divided mixture among 4 ice-filled glasses and serve.
Tangy, slightly sweet, and super refreshing. Exactly what I want in a cocktail!
I love the color of this too. The photos don’t really do it justice. Definitely a statement drink that would be perfect for the next time you’re entertaining. You can also make this ahead of time and pour when ready to serve.
