White Christmas Margarita
A creamy, coconut-kissed holiday cocktail blending coconut milk, lime, and tequila for a festive experience.
Ingredients
For the Margarita
- 4 oz silver tequila
- 2 oz orange liqueur (Triple Sec or Cointreau)
- 4 oz coconut milk (unsweetened or light)
- 2 oz fresh lime juice
- 1.5 oz simple syrup or agave nectar
- Ice cubes
- Shredded coconut (for rimming)
- Fresh cranberries (for garnish)
- 2 rosemary sprigs (for garnish)
Instructions
Preparation
- Rub a lime wedge around each rim of the glasses, then dip into shredded coconut for a frosted, snowy look.
- Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice.
- Add tequila, orange liqueur, coconut milk, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
- Shake well for 20 seconds until smooth and well-chilled.
- Strain into the prepared glasses filled with fresh ice.
- Garnish with cranberries and a sprig of rosemary.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your own little 'white Christmas' moment.
Notes
For a creamier version, use canned coconut cream instead of coconut milk. Batch the drink by combining ingredients (without ice) in a pitcher for easy serving. For a mocktail, replace tequila and liqueur with coconut water and a squeeze of lime. Add grated nutmeg or vanilla for extra flavor.
