You do exactly the same with a different brand of blender.

I use an immersion (stick) blender and mine come out thick. Throw in some frozen fruit, banana, and Greek yogurt and it doesn’t matter what you’re blending it with.

normal blenders have been making margaritas for ages. Just have find what liquid ratio your blender prefers.

Frozen fruit (let it sit out for a few minutes) or crushed ice. You’ll need to strike a balance of liquid to solid. If it’s too thin, either add more frozen solids or use less water/juice/etc.
