Ingredients
Scale
18 oz. canned coconut milk
6 oz. coconut water
6 oz. Grand Marnier (or orange liqueur)
9 oz. silver tequila
6 oz. fresh lime juice
Ice for blending or shaking
Optional Garnish: Shredded coconut, lime wedges, or a splash of cranberry juice
Instructions
Prepare your glasses by rimming them with salt or shredded coconut, if desired. You can wet the rim with a lime wedge and dip it into a shallow plate of salt or coconut.
Combine the coconut milk, coconut water, Grand Marnier, tequila, and fresh lime juice in a large pitcher or cocktail shaker.
If making individual cocktails, shake vigorously with ice until well-chilled. If making a pitcher, stir well to combine the ingredients.
For a standard margarita, pour the mixture over fresh ice in your prepared glasses.
For a frozen White Christmas Margarita Slush, blend the mixture with 2-3 cups of ice until smooth. Pour into glasses.
Garnish each drink with a lime wedge or a sprinkle of shredded coconut. If you want a festive color contrast, add a small splash of cranberry juice to the finished drink.
Notes
For a pitcher recipe that serves 6-8 people, this ratio works well. Adjust quantities proportionally for larger batches.
If you want a slightly sweeter drink, add 1 ounce of agave nectar or simple syrup to the mix before shaking or stirring.
This recipe uses coconut milk for creaminess, making it a tropical Christmas drink twist.
