Blueberry Margaritas pair perfectly with dishes that share a similar fresh flavor like this Lemon Parsely Baked Fish. Or, if you want to balance out the flavors, try pairing your margarita with this Spicy Taco Mac and Cheese! These Grilled Chicken Kabobs also pair well with a blueberry margarita due to the tangy flavor of the orange juice in the marinade!

Expert Tips

- Sprinkle some lime zest into the glass for a zesty punch!
- Use ripe blueberries for the best flavor!
- Add a splash of pineapple juice or orange juice for a flavorful twist.
- For even more tanginess, add some fresh lime juice or a lime wedge instead of a lemon!
Recipe FAQs
To char the lemon, simply char a lemon, sliced in half, over an open flame on a grill or with caution on a gas stove top. Otherwise, heat an iron skillet to high and char the lemon, cut side down, until browned and crisping.
Absolutely! Just throw all your ingredients into a blender with some ice, and BOOM! You’ve got yourself a frozen margarita!
Although we recommend sticking with fresh berries to provide a better flavor, you can use frozen blueberries if that’s all you have! However, the taste may be altered.
