I was very glad to see a Peach Margarita recipe that didn't include peach schnapps. However, this was just way too strong for me. I used enough ice to make it a slushy type texture. I even used a whole peach, instead of a half. I also tried adding some artificial sweetener. The end result was a decent flavor, but just way too strong. I might try this again , but stir in a little 7-up after blending.
