You Will Need (12 things)

  • 1 Ice Cube Tray

  • 6 Large Lime s juiced + 1 lime sliced and halved for garnish
  • 4 tsp Orange Liqueur – I use Cointreau
  • Simple Syrup (see instructions on how to make below)
  • Pink himalaya Salt

  • 1 -2 shots of your favorite Tequila
  • For simple syrup: 3/4 cup Sugar

  • Water

Steps (7 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    To make simple syrup stir sugar and water together and boil on the stove for one minute. Allow to fully chill.
    Pour fresh squeezed lime juice from 6 limes into a medium-sized bowl. Stir in orange liqueur, and chilled simple syrup until combined.

  2. 2

    Place each of the halved lime slices into each individual section of the ice cube tray.

  3. 3

    Pour the lime, liqueur and syrup mixture into the ice-cube trays, over the top of each lime. Place in the freezer and allow to chill for 2-3 hours or until solid.

  4. 4

    Rub each cocktail glass in fresh lime and rim in pink himalaya salt

  5. 5

    Once frozen, remove the Margarita Ice Cubes from the tray by using a small thin knife. Place 3 cubes in each glass, and pour 1-2 shots of tequila (depending on how strong you like it) over the ice-cubes.

  6. 6

    Allow a few moments for the cubes to melt and blend with the tequila. Garnish with a slice of fresh lime and enjoy!

    This is such an easy and time-saving solution for entertaining guests! The cubes freeze well and can be made in advance.

  7. 7

    This recipe makes about 6-8 cubes. You’ll want at least 3 cubes per glass. These can easily be made non-alcoholic as well!
