Notes

*Tart cherry juice is not the same as bing or sweet cherry juice. I found it in the organic section of my grocery store. Grenadine will also work, but tart cherry juice is better if you can find it.
**A standard-sized blender holds about 12 cups. If you're going to make several batches of frozen margaritas, you may want to buy a bag of ice at the store.
***Don't skip the garnishes for full effect. Salt the glass rims, and pile on the maraschino cherries and lime slices!
