I added a few sugared cranberries for garnish as well. ![]() LIME: Fresh lime juice is a great punch of citrus to balance out the sweet and tart.ĬRANBERRIES: Frozen or fresh cranberries make a great garnish for the best Christmas margaritas recipe you will whip up this year. POMEGRANATE JUICE: To really bring in the holiday season I find that adding pomegranate juice as well helps to complement the orange liquor and tart cranberry flavor. Even a white cranberry juice will work for a milder flavor. If you want a sweeter cocktail, you an use what is called “cranberry cocktail” juice. You can use Cointreau or triple sec if that’s what you have on hand.ĬRANBERRY JUICE: I used a classic cranberry juice which is a tart flavor. GRAND MARNIER: An orange liqueur that adds a bit of citrus. Use the type of tequila you enjoy the most. TEQUILA: Reach for your favorite silver tequila / Blanco tequila or gold tequila. If you use salt, the tart and lime flavors will be more prominent. Sanding sugar will bring out the sweetness. SUGAR OR COARSE SALT: For the rim of the glass you will roll in sanding sugar or coarse salt. SIMPLE SYRUP: You will use a simple syrup to coat the rim of the glass for dipping in the sugar as well as add to the mixture. Love coconut?
