strawberry margaritas

strawberry_margaritas_1Yes, that is another margarita I whipped up. There is a perfectly legit reason why this time however...I have myself a new Vitamix.

You guys, the hype is real. I have never in my wildest dreams dreamt a blender so fabulous. It’s amazing I have ate anything solid since receiving it as now all I want to do is obliviate things in my Vitamix.

[A big “way to go” out to my man for scoring me one. Apparently if I ask for something on the blog I get it. Hmmm….]

strawberry_margaritas_2 strawberry_margaritas_3Now about this margarita. It’s basically as fabulous as the blender. Think summer, in a glass with a splash of tequila. It’s fresh, it’s bright, it’s everything you would want a margarita to be this time of year.

strawberry_margaritas_4 strawberry_margaritas_5I am going to repeat myself yet once again on how amazingly easy fresh margaritas are to make at home. [In other words, don’t buy that pre-made stuff.] If you see a recipe like this and think “I like mine frozen though” simply take the ice that would normally fill the glass, and zap it with your other margarita ingredients. Now that I have a Vitamix I can do that too!

Cheers to summer margaritas and kick butt blenders!
