I don’t know about y’all, but I’m planning on spending this upcoming weekend outside.  We’re planning on having friends over and we’ll be celebrating this warm weather with friendship, food, and well, drinks.  🙂

Those that know me know I adore a margarita.  I mean, who doesn’t?   And, I always love experimenting with new recipes.  But, this time, I want something easy to make so that I can spend my time outside with friends instead of inside mixing up to-order drinks for everyone.  Wanna see what I came up with?  Berry and Mango Margaritas!

The base of my perfect summer margarita is frozen fruit.  I made three varieties – raspberry, mango, and mango plus blackberries.  Go wild!  Just add the fruit along with water and apple juice concentrate and blend until smooth.

 

Once the fruit purees are made, dole servings out into mason jars.  For easy entertaining, keep the mason jars on ice so that guests can pick their favorite combination on their own! Does it get any simpler?

 

I paired the mango with the Mango Arobrita, the Blackberry and Mango with the Lime Arborita, and the Raspberry with the Strawberry Arborita.  My favorite? Mango all the way!

Cheers y’all!  Here’s to a fabulous summer filled with good friends and great drinks!
