The margarita will keep well for up to three months. When you're ready to enjoy your frozen margarita, don't heat it. Instead, let it thaw in the fridge overnight. If you need it faster, leave it out for an hour. Once it's thawed, blend again to restore the smooth texture. Enjoy your tropical drink like it’s fresh! To rim the glass, start with a lime wedge.
