Frozen Margarita is a refreshing cocktail made by blending tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice, and ice until smooth. This icy drink is typically served in a salt-rimmed glass and is a popular choice for warm weather and festive occasions. The combination of citrus flavors and the cool, slushy texture makes it a perfect choice for a refreshing treat.
