50+ Margarita Recipes to Enjoy | Summer Margarita Recipes
Most cocktails can be served cold and refreshing, but the margarita is the cocktail that has earned the title of best summer drink. Summer margarita recipes are refreshing and tasty and can be more than just ice cold — they can be made into slushie form!
There is nothing better than a delicious, refreshing drink on a hot summer day. When you spend time outside and heat up, then take a sip from an ice-cold drink, it’s pure euphoria.
The only thing that makes those ice-cold sips even better is if they contain alcohol. It’s hard to pick a favorite from all of the best summer margarita recipes.
Most of them are easy to make, can be batch-made to serve an entire party and go great with guacamole. (But, then again, what doesn’t?). Summer margarita recipes usually come in refreshing fruit flavors, which make them easy to incorporate into any event you may have going on.
Even if there isn’t an event and all you want to do is bask in the summer sun with a drink on a lazy Sunday afternoon, margaritas are perfect.
But more importantly, there are a ton of different recipes for margaritas that make them adaptable to your taste preferences and go great with your summer appetizers.
If you don’t like watermelon, try the mint; if you don’t like mint, try a beer margarita. No matter what you like most, there are summer margarita recipes for you.

What makes a margarita recipe, specifically a summer margarita recipe? Well, that’s the problem: pretty much all margarita recipes are summer margarita recipes.
They are light, sweet, refreshing, and fruity in most cases. That makes them the perfect drinks to serve on a hot summer day. But there are some recipes that stand out a little more as summer recipes.
For example, you want them to be fruity over savory, and there are some savory drinks out there. You also want to have flavors that remind you of summer, pretty much anything with fruit.

Summer Party Ideas
Margaritas make the perfect choice for summer party drinks. You can easily turn any of these recipes into margarita recipes for a crowd. In fact, some of these recipes are already margarita pitcher recipes.
But margaritas just make sense for any type of party. There’s just something about the mixture of a fruity tequila drink and the warm summer sun.
They go hand in hand, like champagne during New Year’s and mulled wine for the holiday season. So it just makes sense that we should make margaritas the official drink of the summer.

Margarita Recipes for a Crowd
We spoke a bit about making any of these summer margarita recipes into margarita recipes for a crowd. It is very simple to grab a pitcher and just make the recipe repeatedly into the pitcher.
Keep track of how often you make the recipe before filling the pitcher. That is the easiest, though a bit time-consuming, to tell you how many times you will want to multiply the recipe for the next same-sized pitcher.
You could also do the math if that suits you better. You would just need to take the amount produced and multiply it by x to equal the capacity of the pitcher. Which way works for you best?

Margarita Types
Another thing that makes summer margarita recipes fun is the variety. Margaritas have variety both in how they taste and in their texture. You can make margaritas on ice, without ice, or even slush in ice.
Your favorite way may differ, and you could actually turn any of these summer cocktail recipes into any of the types. You can also try something completely different and have margarita jello shots.
There is nothing that is more summer than a shot of jello filled with alcohol.

However, it is always important to discuss responsibility when talking about alcohol. You should always enjoy your favorite summer margarita recipes responsibly.
That means you are either at home with no plans to leave or in a place where you can get a ride home when it’s time.
