how to make margaritas

These pomegranate margaritas are a seasonal twist on traditional margaritas, and they are perfect for the holidays. Go ahead and adjust the strength to your liking—if you like a stronger margarita, cut back on the pomegranate juice. Use a good quality 100% agave tequila like Patron Silver; it’ll taste better, and you’ll be glad for it the next day.
