Ingredients
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
- 1 lime cut into wheels
- 3 ounces coconut tequila
- 2 ounces Cointreau
- 3 ounces freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 1/2 ounces agave nectar

- Place the coconut flakes into the pitcher of your blender. Use the pulse setting to grind the coconut flakes into a fine powder. Transfer a tablespoon of the coconut powder to a small, flat plate. Add a tablespoon of flaked salt to the plate and mix it with the coconut powder.

- Rinse out the blender pitcher. Place the tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, agave nectar, and ice into the pitcher and process on the Icy Drinks/Smoothies setting.
- Pour the margaritas into the prepared glasses. Garnish with lime wheels. Serve immediately.
