Happy Friday!
I know, I know I am sharing two alcoholic drinks with you in one week, which is pretty random of me to do, but I made this drink for Monday, but decided I would share it with you today, since I felt it needed its own blog post. I have three alcoholic drinks that I love and they call out summer to me, and I thought today I would share one with you. This is one of my all time favorite drinks, the Strawberry Margarita!
But this is not the traditional 340 calorie margarita, it’s a skinny one! It’s only 104 calories for two cups!! It’s made with frozen strawberries, stevia, water, ice and of course tequila. It’s perfect!! I just love margaritas! If I was out at a Mexican restaurant and I ordered a drink, it would be this one! But you know what? I love mine at home better! It’s sweet, chock full of strawberries and simply delicious! Plus completely guilt-free!! I could have two if I wanted!!
It takes just a few minutes to make and is a wonderful refresher if it is hot out. You can also choose to skip the tequila and make it without and you have a simple virgin margarita, which is perfect to serve kids!! At a dollop of whip cream and your kids have a healthy drink!
- 1 cup strawberries sliced, frozen
- ½ cup ice
- ⅔ cup water
- ¼ tsp. lime juice
- 1 oz Tequila
- ¼ tsp. stevia (to taste)
- In a blender add all of the ingredients and process until combined.
I’m cutting this post short today. With the hot weather, than going to cool, I am whipped out! Time to relax, enjoy my evening and drink a Skinny Strawberry Margarita.
Enjoy your weekend!!
Toodles,
Jennifer

Just made this, I didn’t have any stevia, so I used a tiny tiny bit of honey to sweeten it. Very delicious and fresh tasting. Thanks for sharing.
