White Christmas Margaritas
Description
This cocktail blends silver tequila and Grand Marnier with a mix of lime juice and coconut components—coconut water, milk, cream, and flavored rum—achieving a creamy, tropical flavor profile enhanced by the citrus acidity. The ingredients are whisked together rather than shaken to combine the creamy elements smoothly.
The rosemary sprigs and fresh cranberries serve as garnishes that contribute seasonal aroma and visual appeal, making it suitable for holiday gatherings. Sweetness can be adjusted with simple syrup, which is prepared by dissolving equal parts sugar and water heated then cooled.
Ingredients
- 10 ounces tequila silver
- 8 ounces Grand Marnier
- 8 ounces lime juice
- 8 ounces coconut water
- 8 ounces coconut milk canned
- 6 ounces coconut cream
- 6 ounces rum coconut flavored
- 6 ounces simple syrup
- 1 teaspoon coconut extract if desired
- rosemary sprigs for garnish|fresh for garnish
- Cranberry sprigs for garnish|fresh for garnish
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together well – I find that for a large scale drink like this with something creamy (the coconut), it works best to make it in a large measuring glass or bowl and whisk it all together as opposed to shaking it. If desired, you can add 1 to 2 teaspoons of coconut extract for more islandy coconut flavor! Taste and add more syrup if you’d like more sweetness.
- Note: to make the simple syrup, combined equal parts sugar and water (like 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water) in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk constantly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil, then remove from heat and let cool completely.
