This is a great easy to make blended margarita for celebrations and holidays because it uses already frozen dragon fruit.

While many people like beer during celebrations, some prefer a more fancy drink.

Mocktails are very popular these days for people who don’t care to drink to avoid the calories or the effects of alcohol. Some of your party guests, especially the designated driver, may appreciate you offering the alternative without them having to ask.

To make the alcoholic version replace the orange juice with tequila and mezcal*.
