Instructions

  1. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then invert the glass into the kosher salt to rim it.
  2. Fill the glass with ice.

  4. Shake well and strain over the ice in the prepared glass
  5. Garnish with a rosemary sprig and sugared cranberries.

Notes

  • Cranberries: To make sugared cranberries, squeeze lime juice over the cranberries and then roll them in sugar. 
  • Ice: Make sure the glass is “loaded” with ice. This will ensure it doesn’t melt too quickly and the drink can be enjoyed over a longer period of time. You can also opt for crushed ice for a fancier appearance.
  • Quality tequila: If you’re making a drink like margaritas, opt for quality tequila as this is where most of the flavor comes from.
  • Prep ahead: As noted in the storage section, prepping the ingredients in advance will seriously enhance your drink-making experience and allow you to spend more time with your guests!
  • Glassware: You can use a traditional margarita glass. But really any clear glass will work. You don’t need expensive glassware, but it’s always best to serve fancy cocktails in clear glasses rather than plastic cups.
