I love margaritas, especially this pretty perfect peach margarita recipe. Oh my, does it taste so yummy! It is slightly sweet and perfectly balanced.

Lainey’s obsession

Surprised that I posted another margarita? No? Me either. Because I love margaritas so much.

When I worked at the restaurant, I made many of these lovely peach margaritas for patrons. One thing I didn’t like was that we were made to use peaches drenched in syrup.

Not that I haven’t eaten my fair share of peaches in syrup. I have.

In fact, I have fond memories of my Nana, Bena, eating those peach slices plopped on shredded wheat cereal for breakfast.

I love how slippery they are. And they have this satisfying crunch. It’s not the same as chomping on a fresh peach, mind you, but there’s a crunch just the same.

Still, fond of them as I am, canned peaches are not my idea of cocktail fruit.

The ingredients for the Peach Margarita and the mixing

Unhappily, I couldn’t get fresh peaches in the grocery store for this post, so I had to pay an exorbitant amount of money for these frozen peaches. They were yummy, so I really can’t complain………too much.

Propping up the bag of peaches is a bottle of Cointreau and peaking from the left side of the photo is my lovely Patron silver tequila. We also have some simple syrup and some lime.

Let’s get started.

I grab my blender container and measure out two ounces of tequila.

I pour the tequila into the container.

Orangey Goodness

Next up, I measure one ounce of Cointreau.

Into the container it goes to meet up with its good friend, tequila!

Now for the lime juice. I squeeze out one ounce. I find that one medium sized lime, yields that amount.

I pour it into the container.

Now to sweeten it up a little. I measure 1/2 ounce of simple syrup.

Into the blender container it goes.

Peach Time

I take some frozen peaches and heap them into a cup measure. I’d say they are the equivalent of one normal or one and a half small peaches.

I place them into the container and add one cup of ice. I screw on the top of the blender and pulse it until the ingredients are completely blended.

Time to pour this lovely peach margarita into the glass. I also spear two peach slices with my martini pick and balance it on the peach margarita!

Bottoms Up

Yum! Doesn’t that look delicious?

Let’s look at a close up.

And now for the vertical photo.

Which photo do you like best? Inquiring minds would like to know.

Yes! Delish.

I hope you enjoyed this recipe as much as I did drinking it. Soooo, good.
