How To Make A Pink Margarita

I love a cocktail on the lighter side. If you are not the biggest fan of super sweet or sugary drinks, this one is for you! First, juice the limes, I use this small juicer for making cocktails. It’s so easy to use plus it has measurements on the side!

Ok, add ice to your glasses and to your cocktail shaker. Add the tequila, agave nectar and lime juice to the shaker. I also love this small measuring glass for measuring cocktails. Shake really well, if you don’t the agave may sink to the bottom.

Pour evenly between the two glasses of ice and top with the sparkling pink lemonade. If you can’t find sparking pink lemonade or pink lemonade, you can use regular lemonade. Lastly, garnish with maraschino cherries and a splash of the cherry juice. You can substitute grenadine for the cherry juice if desired.

Hope you enjoy! Cheers!
