Print Recipe

A quick and easy frozen margarita blending ripe peaches and fresh basil with a tangy Tajín rim, perfect for summer refreshment.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 8–10 fresh basil leaves, gently muddled
  • 2 ounces (60 ml) tequila blanco
  • 1 ounce (30 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1 ounce (30 ml) simple syrup
  • 1 ½ cups (12 ounces / 340 grams) ice, crushed or cubed
  • Tajín seasoning for rimming the glass
  • Coarse salt (optional, mixed with Tajín for rim)

Instructions

  1. Peel the peaches by blanching them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then plunging into ice water. Slice into 1-inch chunks.
  2. Place basil leaves in the bottom of a blender or mixing glass and gently muddle with a muddler or wooden spoon to release oils.
  3. Add peach chunks, muddled basil, tequila blanco, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and ice to the blender.
  4. Pulse a few times to break up the ice, then blend on high speed until smooth and slushy, about 30-45 seconds. Adjust thickness with water, lime juice, or more ice as needed.
  5. Pour Tajín (mixed with coarse salt if desired) onto a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, then dip rims into the Tajín mixture to coat evenly.
  6. Pour the frozen margarita into the rimmed glasses and garnish with a basil leaf or thin peach slice.

Notes

Use ripe peaches for best flavor. Gently muddle basil to avoid bitterness. Adjust sweetness with simple syrup or agave. Chill glasses before serving. Pulse ice first to protect blender motor. Tajín rim adds a spicy, tangy contrast.
