Easy Orange Cranberry Margarita
a festive homemade margarita for the holidays
Ingredients
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 cup cranberry juice cocktail
- 1 cup lime juice about 10 limes
- juice of three oranges
- fresh cranberries for garnish
Instructions
- Squeeze the lime and orange juice into a bowl or measuring cup. Heat the cranberry juice and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved.I added some fresh cranberries cut in half, oranges and limes to my mix just to infuse a little more flavor.
- Let the mixture cool a bit before adding in the lime juice, mix together, and pour into a bottle. Refrigerate the mix for up to two weeks.
- To mix a margarita, just add a shot of silver tequila to a short glass filled with ice. Then top it off with the margarita mix.
