Roasted Blueberry Margarita

Skill level: Easy

Roasted blueberries, fresh lime juice, and tequila really 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 Superfresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup sugar + more for rimming glasses
  • ½ cup lime juice
  • 6 oz. 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 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 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.
