One of my favorite parts of celebrating holidays with Holden’s family is my stepmother-in-law’s signature cocktails. This year, she prepared a festive cranberry margarita for us. The cocktail was so photogenic that I had to snap an outfit of the day photo with it in front of their beautiful North Pole village. After sharing the photo on Instagram, I got a couple requests for her recipe, so I’ve posted it below. Holiday Cheers!
Ingredients
Thinly Sliced Lime (for garnish)
Fresh Cranberries (for garnish)

Run a lime wedge around the rim of each glass, and dip the edge in sugar to coat.

In a pitcher filled with ice, combine the cranberry juice cocktail, tequila, triple sec, and lime juice, and stir together.
