Margarita Punch is delicious and easy. It’s the perfect cocktail to make for a crowd! This can easily be made kid friendly by leaving out the tequila. We make this fun cocktail every Summer and I cannot get enough!
Strawberry Margarita Punch
The past week I made several crock pot recipes in an attempt to prepare for one of the most exciting times of the year, TAILGATE SEASON!! I made Blue Cheese Stuffed Buffalo Chicken Meatballs, Skinny Parmesan Spinach Dip, and BBQ Chicken Dip. Those are all great, but mean very little if you don’t have a fantastic cocktail to serve with them!
This Strawberry Margarita Punch is just the thing! The mixture of strawberry, limeade, orange juice, tequila, and more creates the most delicious flavor combo. It’s fun for any and every party, plus it’s easy to make a kid-friendly version without the alcohol.
We made an updated version of this recipe with champagne for a sparkling punch recipe! Find the Strawberry Limeade Margarita Punch here.
Strawberry Margaritas for a Crowd
I love a good strawberry margarita, but sometimes they’re not the easiest thing to make in bulk. But this margarita punch recipe solves that issue! This cocktail is super refreshing, delicious, and literally made in minutes. I plan to have multiple pitchers of this at my next BBQ or tailgating party. It’s just SO good.
What’s in this punch?
- Strawberries
- Limeade
- Agave Nectar
- Orange Juice
- Strawberry Soda
- Sugar
- Tequila (or leave it out for a non-alcoholic version)
I just loved how the strawberry soda added a touch of fizz to this perfect punch. I can’t believe I have lived this long into adulthood without knowing this recipe. This is for sure one of my favorite drinks I’ve made so far. And that’s saying something!
How to Make Margarita Punch
This margarita punch is SO easy to make. I love whipping this up for parties throughout the summer time, or even for holidays. It’s just so delicious, there’s never a bad time to make it.
- Put chopped strawberries along with sugar and 1 cup water into a food processor and pulse until smooth
- Pour strawberry mixture into a large pitcher Add limeade, orange juice, soda, agave nectar, tequila, and the remaining 3 cups of water. Stir, stir, stir!
- Serve over ice, garnish with strawberries and limes. Salt the rim of your glasses for an added margarita flair.
I took way too many pictures of this new favorite cocktail, but I just thought it was so pretty. And the taste of this Strawberry Margarita Punch is even better! This is my kind of punch! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

how would i modify this recipe for a huge batch. Im trying to gauge how much alcohol i would need for about 70 ppl
How far ahead of serving time can this be prepared and still be yummy?
You can do either! I always just throw it in frozen and it melts in as it stirs.
I can’t wait to make this….looks amazing!!! Does the limeade go in frozen or thawed?
Thanks again for sharing!!!
I’m thinking about making this for a large crowd. How many servings would you say you get out of the recipe shown here? Thanks!
I wanna try new and different dishes and drinks
Has anyone other than the author tried this? There are lots of comments on how it looks or the great photography: I want to know how it tastes, particularly with the addition of artificial strawberry soda. Anyone?
Hi
Do the 1/4 cup of sugar gets blended in with the strawberries and 1 cup of water in the food processor.
Is it chunky or smooth after its blended? I was wanting to put it in a beverage dispenser with a spout and I don’t want it to get clogged in the spout.
Going to try this for my Brand Celebration at OneAZ Credit Union in Flagstaff for 100 people. Non-alcoholic version of course. Looks delicious!!
This is the perfect margarita to sip on all weekend!
I just let it melt on its own. Less mess that way! But it will work just fine either way. Enjoy! Congrats on the house!!!
I am so excited to try this for my housewarming party! Question though: did you let the limeade concentrate thaw first or just mix and let it melt on its own?
It should be fine as long as you stir before serving. You might wait to pour in the carbonated soda part until right before. Enjoy!
Can these be made ahead of time and put in a container or will it change the taste and such?
Thanks so much Melanie!
Thank you so much Mariah!
Ha Thanks Jaren!!
I love to hear that Rosemary!!! So glad you loved the Apple Pie Punch! Gold tequila should work great in this as well, just maybe add a bit less to start and make sure the level of tequila taste is what you want. I don’t like them to be too strong, so sometimes I add as I go until I get the right taste. Hope you love it!!!! Cheers :)
No it’s not too thick, you can definitely pour it from a spout. You should stir every once in a while because of the puree, but it stays pretty mixed. Hope you love it!
I was wondering how this does in a beverage server with a spout. Is it too thick? Does it have to be stirred often when serving? Thanks
Hi there! I made your apple pie punch last year for Thanksgiving and EVERYONE loved it! So I have a BBQ and a bottle of Reposado tequila, and I don’t know anything about tequilas. Just that this one is gold. Does it matter what type of tequila I use for this punch, does it HAVE to be silver? Have you tried it with gold? Many thanks for any help you can provide. I can’t wait to try this punch!!!
This is my kind of punch!!
I can see why these strawberry cocktails were so loved! They are gorgeous! Pinned!
The lighting on these photos just screams summer! This looks so refreshing and perfect after a long day of wrangling the menagerie – like today!
Ha thanks Beth!
Ha!!! Not wrong at all!!! Thanks for stopping by Heather :)
Thanks Krista!!
I second the beach towel and ocean!!!!! Thanks for stopping by Justine :)
I’ll take a pitcher of this punch, a beach towel and the ocean. Please and thank you. <3
Margarita punch! Um… thats a no brainer! Yes I will take 3 of them! So perfect for the summer, I could so just sit outside with a big glass of this watching the sunset!
Is it wrong that I want to throw a party for the sole purpose of making a few pitchers of this? (cuz I’m totally contempating it…)
Now all I want to do is sit outside and enjoy one of these!
You should try lucero olive oil’s, white strawberry balsamic vinegar. I make lemonade with it all the time. I’m so excited to try it in this receipe!!!!
That is such a cute idea! I hope you guys love the recipe. Congrats to your daughter!! <3 I used a 12 ounce can of limeade concentrate. Hope that helps!
Was wanting to know how many ounces are in the can of limeade? Sounds perfect for my daughters cocktail hour at wedding. Perfect color!
Hahaha, you’re right, now I have to. Just waiting for summer to come back again. A little too tropical looking for a cold winter evening. Thanks for your advice.
Ps: I found a few cans of strawberry fanta in a fish and chips shop nearby. If there are cans, there are also bottles somewhere. Should probably try a it firs tto see what it’s like.
It might be a little different, but lemon lime soda like sprite or 7up would also work!! Now you’ve for to make it after you’ve gone through all this trouble haha
Thanks for that. Now to find some strawberry soda, might not be as easy as I initially thought.
Hey Carine! Very cool that you’re visiting from Australia! I found this easy recipe for limeade concentrate, it should work great! Start with one cup of it in the punch and then add more to taste. Hope you love it! http://oneperfectbite.blogspot.com/2010/06/limeade-concentrate.html?m=1
I want to try these but we don’t have frozen limeade here in Australia (as far as I know). Any suggestions for substitutions? Or a DIY.
Thanks.
Thank you so much!! I appreciate you stopping by :)
Great photos. This looks so refreshing in this hot weather.
Thanks so much!! I hope its perfect for your girls weekend. I’m so jealous…I need a girls getaway!!
OOh! This look amazing. We are having a girls getaway this weekend and a pitcher of these would be perfect poolside:)
Thanks so much Phi!! That means a lot coming from a great blogger like you :)
