This Raspberry Margarita has zip and zing with freshly squeezed lime juice and blushes full of crimson color. It’s also naturally vegan and gluten-free.

Ingredients

For a small 2/3 cup serving:

  • 1 oz (2 tablespoons) tequila
  • 1 oz (2 tablespoons) Cointreau or triple sec
  • 2/3 oz (4 teaspoons) lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1/3 cup (40 grams) raspberries
  • 4-6 teaspoons maple syrup or simple syrup
  • 1/3 to 2/3 cup ice

For a large 1 1/3 cup serving:

  • 1.5 oz (3 tablespoons) tequila
  • 1.5 oz (3 tablespoons) Cointreau or triple sec
  • 1 oz (2 tablespoons) lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1/2 cup (62 grams) raspberries
  • 2-3 tablespoons maple syrup or simple syrup
  • 1/2 to 1 cup ice

Instructions

  • Add the tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, raspberries, and the lower amount of sweetener + ice to a blender.
    1 oz (2 tablespoons) tequila, 1 oz (2 tablespoons) Cointreau, 2/3 oz (4 teaspoons) lime juice, 1/3 cup (40 grams) raspberries, 4-6 teaspoons maple syrup, 1/3 to 2/3 cup ice
  • Blend on high until totally combined.
  • Taste and add more maple and ice, if desired.
  • Add a lime wedge. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Using frozen raspberries is cheaper and makes the drink colder. So that’s what I use. But frozen raspberries are often less sweet than fresh, so you might need the extra maple.
  • The margarita in the pictures was made with the upper amount of ice + a handful extra, but I think it's better without the extra handful.
  • Note that the serving sizes use the upper amount of ice.
