Cherry Margarita

Alcohol, Slushie

Ingredients

16 oz frozen pitted cherries, thawed overnight (save the juices)

1 ½ cups silver tequila

1 cup Cointreau or orange triple-sec

1 cup fresh lime juice

1 cup unsweetened or sweetened cherry juice

simple syrup or agave, to taste

limes and cherries for garnish

Directions

Blend the thawed cherries in a blender on high speed until its pulverized.

Add all of the ingredients to a pitcher with ice and stir well.

Serve with fresh limes and cherries.

Notes

I say add simple syrup to taste because I don't like a lot of sweetness in this cocktail. The cherries are sweet so you may not need much added sweetner.
