RECIPE: Low-Calorie Frozen Margaritas

    From fitness.com:

    Enhance a regular blended margarita recipe with a can of frozen limeade, which adds extra citrus flavor. Prefer something sweeter? Make a batch of strawberry margaritas with fresh summer strawberries.

    Start to Finish: 10 minutes
    Makes: 10 servings

    12-ounce can frozen limeade concentrate
    2/3 cup tequila
    1/2 cup light orange juice or orange liqueur
    4 cups ice cubes
    1/2 of a medium lime
    Coarse salt
    Orange slices (optional)

    1. In a blender container combine limeade concentrate, tequila, and orange juice. Cover and blend until combined. With blender running, add ice cubes, one at a time, through opening in lid, blending until mixture becomes slushy.

    2. Cut a thick lime slice; cut slice in half. Rub slices around rims of eight glasses. Dip rims into a dish of coarse salt to coat rims. Pour mixture into prepared glasses. Garnish glasses with orange slices, if desired.
