Instructions

Prepare the Blender:
Start by pouring 6 ounces of tequila into your blender. This will form the base of your Miami Margarita, providing that familiar margarita kick. -
Add the Corona Beer:
Next, add 6 ounces of Corona beer to the blender. The Corona adds a refreshing and light flavor that perfectly complements the tartness of the limeade. -
Add the Limeade Concentrate:
Pour in 6 ounces of frozen limeade concentrate. The concentrate enhances the margarita’s tangy citrus flavor, making it extra zesty and refreshing. -
Add Ice Cubes:
Add enough ice cubes to the blender until the mixture reaches about 2 inches from the top of the blender. This will help to chill and thicken the margarita, giving it that perfect frozen texture. -
Blend the Ingredients:
Blend all of the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. The resulting margarita should be slushy and deliciously frothy. -
Prepare the Glasses:
On a small plate, spread out a layer of kosher salt. Dip the rims of your serving glasses into water, then dip them into the salt to coat the edges. This salted rim will give a classic margarita finish to your drink. -
Serve:
Pour the blended margaritas into the prepared glasses, making sure to leave some room for the froth. Raise your glass and enjoy this refreshingly easy Miami Margarita! -
Optional Variation:
If you’re in the mood for a fruitier version, add a handful of sliced frozen strawberries into the blender before blending. The strawberries will add a burst of sweetness and color, transforming your Miami Margarita into a fruity delight.
Additional Notes
- Feel free to adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more limeade concentrate or substituting other frozen fruits such as mango or pineapple.
- You can also experiment with different types of beer to change up the flavor profile of the margarita.
- For a lighter, less boozy option, reduce the tequila and increase the amount of beer.
