How to Make Mock Margaritas

  1. Thaw 1 (64 oz) container of lemonade and 1 (46 oz) container of limeade concentrate completely. Do not dilute.
  2. In a blender, combine the lemonade, limeade, 1 (12 oz) can frozen limeade concentrate, and 2 cups of sugar. Blend in batches until smooth, pouring each batch into a large (4-liter) pitcher.
  3. Freeze the mixture until it becomes firm (approximately 4-6 hours or overnight).
  4. Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before serving to allow for slight softening.
  5. Rub the rims of your margarita glasses with a lime wedge.
  6. Pour salt onto a small plate. Dip the moistened rims of the glasses into the salt to create a salted rim.
  7. Add club soda to the lemon/lime mixture, stirring gently until it reaches your desired consistency (slushy or more liquid).
  8. Pour into prepared glasses and enjoy immediately!
