    I am so ashamed to admit this, but this Margarita Parfaits Recipe has been sitting in drafts for TWO YEARS. Two entire years, folks!

    That may seem insane to you, but with my crazy travel schedule in 2016 and 2017, I let a lot of things slide and this is not the only recipe that hasn't been published yet. I have been a naughty, naughty blogger!

    Doesn't this Margarita Parfait Recipe look delicious? This Frozen Margarita Recipe for Parfaits is simple to make and the results are like something you'd get on a beach vacation!

    • Limes

    Keep in mind, all of the specific ingredient amounts will be listed in the printable recipe card below!

    How to Make this Frozen Margarita Recipe for Parfaits

    Add the lime Jello-O powder to a large mixing bowl.  Pour the boiling water into the bowl and whisk until all of the gelatin is dissolved. 

    Add the cold tequila, lime juice and half of the lime zest and stir well to incorporate. Cover the remaining lime zest with plastic wrap for later use.

    Gently fold in the whipped topping and transfer to your parfait glasses.

    Chill until the layers are set (they will automatically separate) - about 1 ½ hours.

    Before serving, dollop with more whipped topping and sprinkle with the remaining lime zest.

      Confused about the Jell-O portion.
      A 0.6 oz box makes 8 1/2 cup servings.
      This recipe calls for 6 oz lime Jell-O.
      That would be 8-9 boxes of 0.6oz Jell-O powder.
      That just could not be right. Can Jenn please
      clarify?
