Ingredients
  

For the Chile-Lime Rim
  • 2 tbsp Tajín Clásico seasoning
  • 1 Lime wedge, for rimming
For the Avocado Margarita
  • 4 oz Tequila blanco good quality
  • 2 oz Fresh lime juice about 2 limes
  • 1 oz Agave nectar adjust to taste
  • 1/2 Ripe avocado peeled and pitted
  • 1 oz Orange liqueur Cointreau or Triple Sec
  • 1-2 cups Ice plus extra for serving if desired

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Cocktail shaker (optional, for chilling)
  • Citrus juicer
  • Shallow Dish
  • Margarita glasses

Method
 

Prepare the Glass Rim
  1. Pour the Tajín Clásico seasoning onto a shallow plate or dish. Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of two margarita glasses to moisten them. Dip the moistened rims into the Tajín, rotating gently to coat evenly. Set the glasses aside.
Blend the Margarita
  1. Add the tequila blanco, fresh lime juice, agave nectar, ripe avocado (half), orange liqueur, and 1 cup of ice to a high-speed blender.
  2. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no avocado chunks remaining. If the mixture is too thick or you prefer a colder drink, add more ice and blend again.
Serve
  1. Carefully pour the creamy avocado margarita into the prepared chile-lime rimmed glasses. Garnish each glass with an extra lime wedge or a thin slice of avocado, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For the best flavor and texture, use a very ripe avocado. It should yield slightly to gentle pressure. If you prefer a thinner margarita, you can use a bit less avocado or add a splash more lime juice or tequila. For a mocktail version, omit the tequila and orange liqueur, and substitute with a splash of orange juice and a bit more lime juice and agave, or a non-alcoholic spirit.
