Whip up these delicious Pomegranate Orange Margaritas for a special holiday occasion, or just because! All you need are 4 simple ingredients and a couple of minutes for fruity perfection.
Hi friends! Merry day-after-Christmas! To all my followers who celebrate, I hope Santa brought you everything you wanted. And to those who don't, I hope y'all still had a great long weekend with friends and family. To gear up for New Year's {or really like, any winter festivity ever}, I am sharing these amaaazing cocktails today. These Pomegranate Orange Margaritas are so simple to make but taste absolutely delicious. All you need is a handful of simple ingredients and you're on your way to the perfect holiday cocktail!
As I said, these pomegranate orange margaritas take just four ingredients. 2 are pretty self-explanatory - pomegranate juice and orange juice. Then you just need some Cointreau or your favorite triple sec/orange liqueur. And of course, the most important ingredient - tequila! Shake it up, and drink away! The deep maroon color is perfect for the holidays of course, but I feel like it could also work for Valentine's day or really like... anytime ever. I went to A&M so anything maroon is fine by me. 😉
Also I have to tell y'all, I am 50 shades of OBSESSED with these pale pink, gold-rimmed glasses. Like, I die. I have been lusting after very very similar glasses from Anthropologie for literally years, but I could never justify the $28/glass price tag. As can't most humans. Imagine my utter delight when I spotted these doppelgängers at TJ Maxx for $4 EACH. You can bet these babies hopped into my shopping cart faster than I could say "Kiss my butt, Anthro." They are just so pretty and perfect for these pomegranate orange margaritas, but honestly I would be perfectly happy drinking my water out of these too. They're just so pretty!
I hope these scrumptious pomegranate orange margaritas will grace your cocktail hour sometime this holiday season! They are so simple to make and absolutely scrumptious. A little sweet, a little tart, and a nice punch of alcohol to finish it off. 😉 It's 5 o'clock somewhere, right?
Looking for more cocktails? I have to tell you it's kinda slim pickings around here. The only things I know how to make are margaritas and sangria. You can check out my Homemade Peach Lime Margaritas, Spiced Cranberry Orange Sangria, and Mixed Berry Moscato Sangria! Happy drinking!
And you just know I couldn't let the year end without another gif!! I am sooo obsessed with how this came out. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
