How to Store a Blueberry Margaritas

Margaritas are really one of those drinks that are best enjoyed as soon as it has been prepared, especially if they’re homemade. This is due to the fact that homemade margaritas don’t usually include the same types of additives or preservatives that store-bought brands are made with to extend their shelf life.

With all of that being said, you can still store your blueberry margarites in the fridge so long as you make sure that they’re sealed up tightly. Use either an airtight container or a glass jar with a lid and be sure to consume the margarita within 2 to 3 days.
