Pomegranate Margaritas

You can never have too many festive cocktails to help you celebrate this time of year, don’t you think, especially one that uses in season fruit, like these Pomegranate Margaritas!

Pomegranate Margaritas

This recipe for Pomegranate Margaritas makes a beautiful drink, perfect for small gatherings!

Pomegranate Margaritas

I made my own juice for this recipe (instructions below) but you can just purchase pomegranate juice at your grocery store to make this a super quick recipe.

Pomegranate Margaritas

Ingredients: (makes 4 servings)

  • Lime wedge, plus more for garnish
  • Coarse Kosher Salt
  • Ice
  • 4 ounces white tequila
  • 2 ounces Triple Sec or Cointreau
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate juice
  • the juice of 1 lime
  • Club soda, to taste

To make pomegranate juice from pomegranate seeds, seed one pomegranate and add the seeds to your blender.

Blend until the arils release their juices. Put a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl or measuring cup and pour the mixture into the strainer, again in batches. Use a spoon to press as much juice out of the mixture as you can before adding in more. Discard the pulp. You should end up with about 1/2 cup pomegranate juice.

First, garnish your glasses. Pour salt onto a plate. Rub a lime wedge along the rim of a glass and dip glasses upside down to salt the rim. You may have to rotate the glass around a bit to evenly coat the rim.

Fill the glasses with ice.

Fill a cocktail shaker (or if you’re like me and can’t find your shaker, a large jar will do) with the tequila, triple sec, pomegranate juice, and lime juice. Shake to combine.

Strain the mixture evenly into the salt-rimmed glasses. Top each off with club soda. Garnish each with a lime wedge and serve.

As a pomegranate fan, I loved these margaritas!

The pomegranate juice works really well with the citrus from the lime, making for a really refreshing cocktail! If you prefer things a little sweeter, you could add a bit of agave before shaking.
