On the Seventh Day of Christmas….

Two margaritas?  Back-to-back?  Can you say taco night?  Ole!  Feliz Navidad!  You betcha!

This one garnered more favorable reviews than the previous Orange Cranberry Margarita. It was a snidge sweeter.  And the lime added something.  As did the fresh pomegranate seeds.  Very well received.

Pomegranate Margarita (makes 1)

2 ounces Grand Marnier
1 1/2 ounces Tequila
2 ounces pomegranate juice
2 ounce lime juice
1 1/2 ounces simple syrup

Simple syrup….simple!  Equal amounts sugar and water in a small saucepan.  Bring to a boil.  Cool.  Ta-da!

Mix all ingredients, serve over ice with a slice of lime and pomegranate arils.  I will definitely be making this one again!
