Frozen Strawberry Margaritas

I have the perfect weekend cocktail recipe for you.  It's cold, it's refreshing, and it's actually "healthy".  Healthy as in there is no added sugar or syrup or anything.  Not healthy as in it contains alcohol.  But hey, it's Friday, so who gives a crap?
 
 
 
Here's the recipe - Frozen Strawberry Margaritas
 
They are oh so good, and oh so guilt free because there are no artificial ingredients or added sugar.
 
I made a few batches last weekend and I couldn't get enough!  The recipe is almost exactly as I found it on ValSoCal.com, with a few exceptions.
 
                                                           6 ounces of tequila
                                                           2 ounces grand marnier or Triple Sec
                                                           1 quart of fresh strawberries,
         *I used strawberries I froze last weekend from Lewis Farms and they were amazing
                                                           3 limes, juiced
                                                           3/4 cup water
                                                           2 tablespoons agave nectar, I omitted
                                                           3 to 4 cups of ice
 
 
The flavor and texture after being blended really did taste like a restaurant style margarita/daiquiri.  You could easily make this a true daiquiri by using rum instead of tequila.  Or a virgin daiquiri by omitting alcohol altogether.  Ole!! to another weekend!
