You can enjoy your Keto Margarita either frozen or On-The-Rocks (which is the way we typically prefer to make ours, no brain freeze!). If you feel like making this as a frozen margarita, just toss all of the ingredients into your blender and call it a day.
Rather than using a typical Diet Soda that would be made with artificial sweeteners, we have started to use the new Zevia Mixer drinks that are sweetened with Stevia instead. These provide a Keto-friendly alternative for making your favorite adult beverages.
Another plus is that Tequila is keto-friendly too, so this opens up some more possibilities for other types of keto drinks in the future too. As an added bonus, this is a fun and relaxing way to unwind and take in some electrolytes at the end of the day.

Looks delicious! I’m having trouble finding the Zevia Lemon Lime with Bitters Mixer. Can the Zevia Lemon Lime Twist Soda or the Dry Lemon Lime Mixer be substituted?? Thanks.
Thanks Jane. The Zevia Lemon Lime Twist isn’t quite as strongly flavored as their mixers but it should still work.
