Roasted Blueberry Margarita

Skill level: Easy

Roasted blueberries, fresh lime juice, and tequila make for a delicious twist on your favorite margarita. Roasting the blueberries before pureeing them makes them burst with flavor in this summer cocktail!

Ingredients

  • 1 dry pint of Superfresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup sugar + more for rimming glasses
  • ½ cup lime juice
  • 6 ounces of tequila
  • Lime zest
  • Honey or agave syrup (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F
  2. Begin by washing blueberries. Without completely drying, place blueberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle them with sugar and toss to coat.
  3. Roast for 15 minutes until blueberries start to burst.
  4. Place the roasted blueberries in a blender and puree. Chill completely. If you don’t want blueberry chunks in your drink, strain.
  5. Add lime juice, ¾ cup blueberry puree, and tequila in a cocktail shaker or pitcher, and then stir or shake to combine. Add honey or agave if you prefer it to be sweeter.
  6. Add sugar and lime zest to a small plate and toss. Take a lime wedge and go around each glass, and then dip it into the sugar mixture to rim 3 glasses.
  7. Fill glasses with ice and then pour the blueberry margarita over top. Garnish with a lime wedge and extra blueberries, and serve immediately.
