A holiday flavor combo for year-round enjoyment! The Cranberry Margarita combines the smoky allure of mezcal or a milder tequila with the tart zing of cranberry juice, citrusy orange liqueur, and a hint of rosemary-infused sweetness. This easy margarita is the perfect way to use up that bottle of cranberry juice in the fridge no matter what time of year.
If you are looking to serve this margarita for Thanksgiving or Christmas, I highly recommend making a Frozen Cranberry Sauce Margarita. My secret ingredient is blending up some fresh (or leftover) cranberry sauce for the easiest way to get maximum flavor.
This seasonal margarita is as beautiful as it is delicious, garnished with fresh cranberries, a rosemary sprig, and a lime wheel. It’s a drink that’s guaranteed to impress your guests and keep the holiday cheer flowing. Let’s get shaking!
