Notes
- This recipe makes one drink. You can easily scale the quantities up by changing the number of of servings on the recipe card.
- I like to use unsweetened cranberry juice for a more intense flavor. You can use cranberry juice cocktail if you prefer a sweeter drink.
- This recipe does not use a cocktail shaker because many home cooks do not have them on hand. If you do prefer to shake your margarita, place the liquids in a cocktail shaker or sealed mason jar and shake to combine. Pour over the ice and serve with garnishes.
