This avocado margarita is creamy, refreshing, and full of flavor. It’s the perfect summer cocktail for your next pool party or barbecue! When I first heard about the avocado margarita, I knew I had to try it. I love how creamy it is, and the avocado flavor blends perfectly with the other ingredients.
It was a pleasant surprise! If you enjoy the taste of avocados and creamy cocktails, you’re going to love these green margaritas. This recipe is ideal for any cocktail party!
For the best experience, serve the margarita immediately after blending for the creamiest texture and freshest flavor. If you need to store it, keep it in the fridge for up to 24 hours and give it a good stir before serving, as the ingredients may separate.
You can also freeze the blended margarita in an airtight container for up to a month. When ready to drink, let it thaw slightly and blend again to restore its creamy texture.

Can I Make This Recipe Without a Blender?
Yes, you can, but the texture might not be as smooth. If you don’t have a blender, you can mash the avocado very well and mix it thoroughly with the other ingredients. A hand mixer or immersion blender can also work in a pinch.
Can I Use Bottled Lime Juice Instead of Fresh?
Freshly squeezed lime juice is recommended for the best flavor, but you can use bottled lime juice if you’re in a hurry. Just make sure it’s 100% lime juice with no added sugars or preservatives.
How Can I Make This Margarita Less Sweet?
If you prefer a less sweet drink, you can reduce the amount of simple syrup or omit it entirely. You can also add more lime juice to balance the flavors to your liking.
