Frozen Espresso Martini
This recipe, courtesy of Bar Director Garth Poe at Main Street Meats in Chattanooga, allows you to enjoy all the goodness of a top-notch frozen espresso martini at home. Caution: Guests are likely to request this one every time they come over. Get the recipe here.
Spicy Pineapple Margarita
Another fruity frozen margarita recipe, this one comes with a kick thanks to a Tajín rim. If you love a little heat and you’re not on the Tajín bandwagon yet, you’re missing out — it’s a punchy blend of chili, lime, and salt that’s PERFECT for margaritas. The combination of sweet and spicy is extra delicious served frozen. Get the recipe here.
Cheers!
