Can you make a margarita in a Ninja Creami? Why yes, you can! I saw this recipe for a margarita made in the Ninja Creami floating around on Facebook and had to try it. They said to just use a blended margarita mix and pour it into the Ninja Creami pint. So that’at what I did.
Kohl’s had one last Ninja Creami in the store yesterday so I grabbed it. My last Ninja Creami ended up burning inside somewhere and I coudn’t use the blade on it anymore. I think my problem was putting whole frozen fruit in it.
This time I’m going to make sure everything is properly blended first adding it. I can’t wait to make ice cream again. I love my Air Fryer, Blackstone, and Ninja Creami!

Why You Will Like this Ninja Creami Margarita
- Ninja Creami’s can make smoothie bowls, ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and even milkshakes!
- If the blending didn’t work the first time try adding some more juice or milk to it and do a second respin.
- For sorbets use canned fruit or fresh fruit. It just doesn’t make any sense to defrost frozen fruit and then refreeze it in the Ninja Creami machine.
- Find a good base ice cream for vanilla and you can add whatever toppings you like to the ice cream for mix ins.
- The Ninja Creami is kind of loud when it is spinning in the machine. Just warning you before you attempt to make ice cream. 🙂
- Protein drinks like Fairlife and Premiere work great in a Ninja Creami.
- This is the Ninja Creami machine I have. Ninja CN301CO CREAMi Ice Cream Maker (Amazon Link)
