Cranberry Margarita

Christmas is full of get togethers. We often have our parties at my brother’s house in his bar. Because we all love to hang out there, because it reminds us of my Grandfather’s house, I like to come up with a Christmas cocktail. A specialty Christmas drink, like Cranberry Margarita, that I can make while we are all there celebrating.

This year I am making something new. Since cranberries tend to make their appearance during Thanksgiving and hang out until Christmas, this drink can be enjoyed starting at one family get together and stay until the New Year. The sweet and sour mix in this Christmas cocktail adds a great taste and the simple syrup adds some sweetness that works off the cranberry juice.

This Christmas drink has just enough alcohol without going overboard and being too strong. And personally I love the coconut covered rim. This is one of my favorite drinks. I could honestly drink it all year long.
