What’ll You’ll Need

Ingredients

1 packet of Batchwell Classic Margarita Mix, Spicy Margarita Mix, or Skinny Margarita Mix (17g)
1.5 oz Silver Tequila (skip this for a zero-proof version)
3.0 oz cold water
1 cup of ice (about 6-10 ice cubes)
Optional add-ins: 1/2 cup frozen strawberries or 1/2 cup frozen mango chunks
Optional flair: lime wheel, salt rim for the traditionalists

Equipment

Blender (your most important tool for this mission)
A sturdy 12oz glass (or bigger if you're thirsty)
Measuring tool (eyeballing works too, we won't judge)
Spoon or straw for that inevitable brain freeze test

Step-by-Step Instructions

Dress the Rim: Before your blender action, prep your glass. Rub a lime wedge around the rim and dip in salt or sugar.
The Main Event: Add one packet of your chosen Batchwell Mix, 1.5 oz of tequila, 3.0 oz of cold water, and 1 cup of ice to your blender. Add optional frozen fruit if you're feeling adventurous.
Blend Like You Mean It: Start on low, then increase to high speed until smooth and slushy (about 30-45 seconds). You want a smooth texture with no ice chunks.
The Grand Finale: Pour that frosty goodness into your prepared glass. Add a lime wheel or fruit garnish that matches your add-ins.
Sip & Smile: You've earned it! Don't forget to pace yourself—brain freeze is real, friends.

Pro Tips

Food BFFs: This frozen margarita pairs beautifully with spicy dishes—the cold contrasts with heat perfectly. Try with spicy tacos, buffalo wings, or Thai food.
Zero-Proof Magic: Skip the booze and add an extra splash of water or fruit to maintain that perfect consistency.
Fruit Forward: For strawberry or mango variations, use frozen fruit instead of fresh—it adds flavor without watering down your masterpiece.
Perfect Consistency: If too thick, add a splash of more water. If too thin, add a few more ice cubes and blend again. The perfect frozen margarita should be sippable but still hold its shape.

Common Questions

Is this gluten-free? I need to know for... reasons.

Absolutely! All our mixes are certified gluten-free. Your gut will thank you.

Can I make this in a big batch for parties?

Definitely! Simply multiply the ingredients by the number of servings you need. Pro tip: blend in batches rather than overloading your blender, and keep finished batches in the freezer until serving time.

What if I don't have a blender?

No worries! You have options: 1) Crushed ice and a shaker can make a rougher but still refreshing "on the rocks" version, or 2) Our favorite hack: a handheld milk frother! For a slightly less frozen but still delicious version, combine all ingredients with finely crushed ice in your glass and use a handheld milk frother for 15-30 seconds. It won't be quite as smooth as a blender, but it'll get you surprisingly close without the noise or cleanup.

How is this different from restaurant frozen margaritas?

Most restaurant frozen margaritas use pre-made syrups loaded with high-fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors, and unnatural colors. Our powder mix creates a cleaner, more authentic frozen margarita with real ingredients and significantly fewer calories.

Can I make this ahead of time?

You can pre-blend and store in the freezer for up to an hour, but frozen margaritas are best enjoyed fresh. If stored in the freezer, let it thaw for 5-10 minutes before serving, then give it a quick stir to revive the texture.
