Pomegranates are full of antioxidants but they aren’t the easiest fruit on the planet to eat. Fortunately, there is another option…Pomegranate juice which is a great cocktail ingredient in drinks such as Pomegranate Martinis and Strawberry Pomegranate Mojitos.
So, today we are going to combine the beloved pomegranate juice with tequila to create a perfect summer cocktail.
Pomegranate Margaritas
Ingredients
3 ounces Tequila (I used Silver Patron)
5 ounces Pomegranate juice
2 ounces Cointreau
1 fresh squeezed lime
2 lime wedges for garnish
Optional: margarita salt
Preparation
If you want salt, rim glass with lime and dip in margarita salt.
Fill 2 margarita glasses with ice.
Pour all ingredients into cocktail shaker and shake.
Pour into 2 margarita glasses and garnish with lime wedges.
Makes 2 margaritas.
Cheers!
