![]() It is a wonderful (vegan) addition to so many things, such as soups and stews or smoothies. Hah! Coconut milk can ALWAYS be found in my pantry. And I have to pat myself on the back here for a minute: I am a genius. While the old standbys are in play here (tequila, orange liqueur, simple syrup, and lime juice), I amped up the creamy factor with coconut milk. A lot of ice cream machines come with a back-up bowl these days. (On that note, I made the recipe as it is written out below, but I could easily see this recipe doubled for larger crowds. I love a cocktail that I only have to mix up once and then I can set it and forget it. When it’s party time, break out the bowls of guacamole and start up the ice cream machine. Which makes these perfect for parties – make the margarita “mix” ahead of time and chill everything down. You have to ensure that all the ingredients, including the ice cream bowl, are ice cold before you begin. The only catch to my ice cream maker method? It takes a little planning. You still have to measure the ingredients, but the ingredient list is short and quick to get together. The ice cream machine method is sooo much easier (and quieter!). A LOT of work! After the week I’ve had, I knew that frozen margs from a blender were not in the cards. Plus, it’s hard to make a large batch for a crowd. All the measuring and blending and the crazy-loud sound pollution of ice being decimated. Easy peasy.įrozen margaritas can be a pain in the ya know what. FROZEN SLUSHIE COCONUT MARGS! Yes! AND, I’m making them for a crowd (or all for me? Yikes.) in my ice cream machine. So, because I’ve had a week where I’ve been spread a little thin, and because Cinco de Mayo is just about two weeks away, I’m making a biiiiig batch of margaritas to celebrate. A lot of work these past few months has been building up to these conferences, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t thrilled that they are over for another year. I work part time as medical editor three days a week (I spend the other days chasing around my toddler and photographing food for you guys all while trying to maintain my sanity and social life!), and this week consisted of annual conferences that were just…exhausting. Yeah, I’ve had one of those weeks…and it isn’t even over yet! While I don’t have much to legitimately complain about, this week has been jam packed and super draining. Have you ever had a week that just made you want to drown yourself in a bottle of wine? Or faceplant into a pitcher of sangria? Or chug a margarita or four?
