Frozen Margarita Slushie

A frozen margarita slushie is a cold, icy beverage made by blending frozen limeade, tequila, and orange liqueur until smooth and slushy. It has a vibrant, icy texture with a tangy citrus flavor and a hint of alcohol, perfect for hot summer days. The mixture forms a frosty, semi-liqueur-rich drink that’s both refreshing and visually appealing.
