It’s Day 10 of 12 Days of Christmas Cocktails and I’m in Cabo San Lucas! Woo Hoo! Or should I say Ole? In any event, I feel I must post a festive margarita today. This Cranberry Pomegranate Margarita is just right for a holiday-ish margarita!
If you’re a regular reader, no doubt you’ve noticed by now that I love cranberry and pomegranate juices in cocktails, both separately and mixed together. Last year I made a Cranberry Pomegranate Mojito which was quite yummy so I thought why not try the cranberry/pomegranate combination in a margarita? Instead of using pomegranate juice I decided to use some Pama pomegranate liqueur to replace the orange liqueur typically found in a margarita (at least the kind I like) and give it a little pomegranate taste at the same time.
I know things are getting really hectic for most of you right about now with Christmas a couple of days away so think about this Cranberry Pomegranate Margarita if you want a quick and easy cocktail. No fancy flavored syrups to make ahead. The only real work is juicing a lime. Just pour, shake and drink! Enjoy…and Happy Holidays!

- 1 shot tequila (I used Patron)
- 2 shots cranberry juice
- 1 shot Pama liqueur
- 1 lime, juiced
- Opt: ½ shot simple syrup (if you want it a little sweeter)
- Combine ingredients in cocktail shaker filled with ice. Strain and pour into a rocks glass filled with some ice. If desired, garnish with lime, fresh cranberries and pomegranate seeds.
Now THIS is my kind of cocktail! We had family over to celebrate last night and we made wine spritzers with pomegranate juice and sparkling water. I can’t wait to try this.
Have a wonderful time in Cabo and don’t forget to go to The Office to have a margarita on the beach!! So jealous. 🙂
Yum! An easy cocktail sounds pretty perfect right now!
