Tangerine juice is the perfect flavor for a frozen margarita. This juice is sweet, tangy and citrusy. I purchase my tangerine juice locally at Fresh Market. It is a little pricey, but well worth it when I add it to fresh lime juice and tequila to make this fabulous cocktail.
Make the tangerine ice cubes one day (or several days ahead). Enjoy!
