If you’re all about a frozen margarita (or the classic grapefruit-based paloma cocktail), then let me introduce you to your new favorite summer drink. I gave this citrusy-sweet cocktail the frozen treatment in this recipe to create an extra-refreshing cocktail to cool you off on those too-hot days. All you need are 5 ingredients and some ice to make this frosty cocktail—grab your ingredients, and get to blending!
When it comes to the rim, I decided to spice things up (literally). I created a spicy-salty rim by mixing kosher salt and chili powder together, which contrasts every sip of the citrusy, tart drink. That being said, feel free to get creative here! Go with only salt, sugar if you're feeling sweet, or even Tajín. However you serve this blended bev, you'll have trouble only sipping on just one glass.
