Frozen Sunrise Margaritas Recipe

Frozen Sunrise Margaritas Recipe

  • Margarita or coarse sea salt, for rimming glass
  • 1 lime wedge, for rimming glass
  • 1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 1 1/2 cups orange juice
  • 3/4 cup (6 ounces) tequila
  • 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) Cointreau or triple sec
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 cups crushed ice
  • 1/4 cup grenadine
  • 4 orange slices
  • 4 maraschino cherries
  1. Spread a layer of salt in a shallow dish. Run lime wedge around the rims of 4 highball glasses to moisten; dip rims in salt.
  2. Place orange juice concentrate, orange juice, tequila, Cointreau, and lime juice in a blender. Add ice and pulse until smooth. Divide margarita evenly among glasses.
  3. Tilt glasses and pour 1 tablespoon grenadine down the side of each drink; grenadine will sink to the bottom and create a sunset effect. Garnish with orange slices and maraschino cherries and serve.
