Purple and Gold Margarita

  4.5 – 6 reviews  • Tequila Drinks Recipes

Instead of canned cranberry sauce for the holidays, I love using this fresh version. This cranberry sauce is popular even among those who generally dislike it.

What can I say about this cup O Gold?? HHHMMMM, Fan Flippen Tastic!! I could not find the raspberry liquor, so I made my own. Frozen mixed berries, sugar and Sauza Tequila, let it marinade a couple hours, blend and strain out the seeds. Make the Rita, sit back and RELAX!! Cinco De Mayo here I come!! LOL THANK YOU Angelica, Obviouly a KEEPER!!

This was my “try a new drink” choice tonight. I agree with the other reviewers, a little heavy on the raspberry. If I make this again, I will cut back on the raspberry liqueur a bit. Definitely different. Nice for a warm day like today. I would have never thought of putting raspberry liqueur and tequila together, that’s for sure.

A little less raspberry and a lot more tequilla! DELICIOUS!

Made these for my mom and I and my hubby (who normally doesn’t like fruity drinks) kept stealing mine!! Great tasting, doesn’t taste like there is any alcohol in it!!!

Strong Raspberry flavor, too strong for me, reduce raspberry and use more tequila or just reduce.

Very Tasty. The raspberry taste is strong, so if you are not big on the fruity, just change it to 1.5 oz tequila to 1 oz raspberry liqueur
