Ingredients
- 4 cups cranberry juice cocktail
- 1 ½ cups blanco tequila
- ½ cup lime juice
- ½ cup fresh whole cranberries for garnish or "ice", optional
- Additional lime wedges and rosemary sprigs for garnish, optional
- Salt or sugar for rims optional
Instructions
- Optional pre-step: add the fresh whole cranberries in the freezer and freeze until very firm and frosty.
- Add the cranberry juice cocktail, tequila, and lime juice to a pitcher that can hold at least 52 ounces (12 cups or about ½ gallon) comfortably. Stir well. Add the ice or frozen cranberries to the pitcher if serving immediately. If not, chill in fridge and add ice or cranberries just prior to serving.
- Serve cocktails with salt rims and additional lime wedges, fresh cranberries, and sprigs of rosemary.
Notes
Instead of salt, you can try using sugar or a 50/50 mix of sugar and salt for the rims.
