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.

It was ok, but it needed a little bit of sugar water/ simple syrup.
Had my husband make this for me tonight. I had him use 3 Oz of Tequila. I liked it. I use the no sugar Pomegranate juice. Pure.
Had this at a party and the host said she got the recipe from your site. Loved it.
Another hit!!!
I made these delicious pomegranate margaritas for a early Thanksgiving celebration and they were a definite hit!! I like them a bit stronger than most but everyone agreed on the lovely color and flavor. Thanks!
Didn’t like these as much as the other magarita recipe, but my hubby LOVED these. Regardless never going back to the Jose Cuervo pre mixed junk.
Oh so yummy! I’m a big fan of margaritas and this one is perfect! I agree – always use high quality tequila, it really does make a difference in taste.
These have become my husband’s favorite margarita. They are easy to make and the addition of the pomegranate juice makes them perfect for the holidays.
This is a good margarita recipe with a little twist. I made them by the pitcher or should I say by the mason jar. I combined all ingredients and stuck in freezer for an hour or two before serving. This way it is easy for entertaining.
I do that for Cosmos when I am making for company. Great idea too for the margaritas
Looks like a real winner. I may make some of these alcohol free. 😮
