Why this is SO good:
Holidays always have their traditions and delicious foods that come around one time a year! Easy variation on the Margarita you already love, just rim the class with the Candy Cane Sugar and make it beautiful and classy, so easy!
Ingredients:
Lime Wedge (for rim)
1 Tbsp Candy Cane Sugar
Ice Cubes
6 oz Cranberry Juice
2 oz Tequila
1/2 oz Orange Liqueur
2 Drops Peppermint Extract
Raspberry Seltzer Water
Candy Cane for Garnish
How to make it:
Run the lime wedge along the rim, and dip the rim in the 1 Tbsp Candy Cane Sugar.
Carefully add ice cubes to the glass.
In a cocktail shaker, add the 6 oz Cranberry Juice, 2 oz of Tequila, 1/2 oz Orange Liqueur, and the 2 drops peppermint extract and shake it good!
Pour the mixture over the ice in your glasses, top with teh Raspberry Seltzer Water.
Garnish with Candy Cane and serve to good people!
How to store it:
If for some strange reason there’s extra, raffle off the rest?
So, what if:
I don’t have raspberry seltzer? No problem - regular seltzer water will be just fine, it will just taste less raspberry-ish!
I don’t have limes? You can use orange slices, or even just water!
