Description

A festive twist on the traditional margarita, perfect for Thanksgiving celebrations.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 oz cranberry juice
  • 2 oz orange juice (freshly squeezed is best)
  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz simple syrup (or honey syrup — 1:1 honey and hot water mixed)
  • 2 oz sparkling water or club soda (for the fizz)
  • Ice cubes
  • For garnish: Orange slice
  • Fresh cranberries
  • Brown sugar & cinnamon for the rim

Instructions

  1. Prepare the glass: Mix brown sugar and cinnamon on a small plate. Run an orange slice around the rim of the glass, then dip into the sugar-cinnamon mix to coat.
  2. Mix the drink: In a shaker (or jar with lid), combine cranberry juice, orange juice, lime juice, and simple syrup. Shake or stir well.
  3. Assemble: Fill the prepared glass with ice. Pour the juice mixture over ice, then top with sparkling water.
  4. Garnish: Add a few fresh cranberries and an orange slice for that festive Thanksgiving touch.

Notes

  • Optional Add-Ins: Add a splash of ginger beer for extra warmth and spice.
  • Float a cinnamon stick for aroma and decoration.
  • Use sparkling apple cider instead of soda for a richer fall flavor.
