Pomegranate Margarita

This pomegranate margarita is the perfect way to cheers the holiday season. Filled with pomegranate juice, tequila and orange liqueur. So tasty and oh so easy to make!

Whoops. So I’m a smidgen late for today’s post. However, I made it up by posting a really really really delicious drink. Hello! (rambling side note: every time I say “Hello!” I think of Cher from “Clueless” when she says “Hello, it was his 50th birthday!”…am I the only one?) It’s fresh pomegranate in margarita form. Or you could just say it’s a dose of antioxidants and liquor fueled energy. 

Another thing I love about this drink is that it includes fresh pomegranate seeds. They are one of the best parts about winter and I could eat them every single day. Also, I really need a drink. Who’s with me? Cheers!!!
