Instructions

- Pour into the prepared margarita glass.
- Garnish the margarita with a wedge of lime and a few fresh pomegranate arils.
- Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- This recipe makes one margarita, but it can easily be doubled or tripled if you’re pouring margaritas for a crowd.
- Ingredient swap: If you cannot find pomegranate liqueur, you may use the same amount of triple sec or Cointreau in its place to make this margarita recipe.
- How to make this a pitcher drink: For a 6-drink pitcher, combine 12 oz. pomegranate juice, 9 oz. silver tequila, 9 oz. lime juice, 6 oz. simple syrup and 6 oz. pomegranate liqueur in a pitcher. Stir to combine, then pour over ice with garnishes.
- How can I use margarita mix in this recipe? If you’ve got margarita mix (homemade margarita mix or the store-bought kind), omit the lime juice and simple syrup with 2 ½ oz. of the margarita mix.
- My favorite margarita store-bought shortcuts:•Cold press freshly squeezed lime juice: It sounds silly, but if you can find this refrigerated lime juice that’s good to go, it’s worth the cost, especially if you’re entertaining. •Simple syrup: If you’re unsure if you’ll have time to make and then cool simple syrup, they sell this bottled stuff in stores, too!
