RECIPE
Orange Cranberry Margarita
This is the first margarita recipe I am sharing with you. See about 5 years or so ago I realized I was allergic to tequila. Or I thought I was. Come to find out it is the agave in tequila that I am allergic to. So I can only have silver tequila and it can’t be cheap ones either. So once I figured this out, I was happy. I really do love a good margarita.
As we wrap up taco week, I thought it was only fitting to add with a margarita. And since it’s Fall and cooler temps are setting in. I went with a Fall Margarita. This orange cranberry margarita is really just delicious. It would be a great cocktail for Thanksgiving or even Christmas. It has all the Holiday vibes and feel.
Cheers from my Kitchen to your Kitchen ????
