Cranberry Margaritas {Easy 5 Ingredients}

Cranberry Margaritas come together with only a handful of ingredients and are incredibly delicious! People will be begging you for this recipe! 

These cranberry margaritas are high on my list of favorite margaritas, and it’s no secret that I love margaritas, but I really love taking a couple shortcuts while making them.  No one ever notices anything different when I make margaritas, so it’s really a win win. Making the perfect margarita doesn’t have to be hard, and even with a simple substitution, you don’t sacrifice any flavor. 

I love the idea of Cranberry Margaritas around the holidays.  Even though margaritas have a reputation of being a summer drink, by adding the more tart cranberries, it brings them down to a less tropical-fruity level.  Even though the cranberries are tart, the other ingredients pick up the sweetness, so this isn’t a bitter drink.  It’s really perfect in my opinion.  Serve these Cranberry Margaritas at your holiday party or just hanging out. I am going to mix up another batch for New Year’s Eve!
