I love my Margaritaville frozen concoction maker. Yes, it’s an unnecessary space waster. All it does uniquely is shave the ice, but the drain for the ice to keep it dry, quality of the blender. Well, it’s one of my favorite unnecessary gadgets. I’ve used it nearly every week for the 2 years I’ve owned it.

But, this will work for any blended ice-in margarita. Measurements for a single serving, scale as needed.
