Method

  1. Grate the zest of 4 limes into a shallow, freezer-proof container. Juice all the limes and add to the container with the tequila.
  2. Stir in the lemonade, add sugar to taste and freeze for 1 hr 30 mins to 2 hrs until slushy. Beat to break up the crystals. Freeze for a further 30 to 40 mins before beating the mixture again. Repeat once more, and then freeze until firm - preferably overnight.
  3. Pile the frozen margaritas into cocktail or shot glasses, and decorate with a wedge of lime.
